Weather in August

The last month of the summer, August, is also a moderately hot month in Hudson, North Carolina, with an average temperature fluctuating between 63.1°F (17.3°C) and 85.1°F (29.5°C).

Temperature

August reports an average high-temperature of a warm 85.1°F (29.5°C), slightly varied from July's 86.7°F (30.4°C). Throughout August, Hudson notes a dramatic plunge from the daily high to an average low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C).

Heat index

August's mean heat index is computed to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
