The arrival of August brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 90.3°F (32.4°C), subtly diverging from July's 90.7°F (32.6°C). Graham witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 69.8°F (21°C) throughout August.

Heat index

August's heat index is calculated to be an extremely hot 109.4°F (43°C). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
