Temperature

Granite Shoals's August weather, with an average high temperature of 95.2°F (35.1°C) and an average low temperature of 74.1°F (23.4°C), tends to be the warmest of the year.

Heat index

For most parts of August, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Stay mindful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke could follow extended physical effort.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
