The last month of the summer, August, is another tropical month in Stonewall, North Carolina, with temperature in the range of an average high of 88°F (31.1°C) and an average low of 72°F (22.2°C).

Temperature

August's advent presents an average high-temperature of a still tropical 88°F (31.1°C), indicating a slight variation from the conditions of the previous month. Stonewall observes an average nighttime temperature of 72°F (22.2°C) during August.

Heat index

The average heat index in August is appraised at an extremely hot 105.8°F (41°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
