The last month of the summer, August, is also a hot month in Siloam, North Carolina, with an average temperature ranging between max 86.9°F (30.5°C) and min 65.1°F (18.4°C).

Temperature

Siloam's average high-temperature in August is a still tropical 86.9°F (30.5°C), indicating a subtle variation from July. Siloam's nighttime average of 65.1°F (18.4°C) during August reflects a substantial decrease from the daytime temperature.

Heat index

August's average heat index is computed to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. 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.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
