The problem asks us to find by how many degrees Fahrenheit the temperature increased, given that the lowest temperature was \(-8^\circ F\) and the highest was \(24^\circ F\).

### Solution:
The temperature increase is calculated by finding the difference between the highest and lowest temperatures:

\[
\text{Increase} = \text{Final temperature} - \text{Initial temperature}
\]
\[
\text{Increase} = 24^\circ F - (-8^\circ F) = 24^\circ F + 8^\circ F = 32^\circ F
\]

Thus, the temperature increased by \(32^\circ F\).

The correct answer is **E. 32°**.
