The last month of the summer, August, is another hot month in Stephens, Georgia, with an average temperature varying between 90.1°F (32.3°C) and 70°F (21.1°C).

With the onset of August, the average high-temperature registers at a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), subtly different from July's 91.8°F (33.2°C). The average low-temperature during August nights is an agreeable 70°F (21.1°C).

Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
