Weather in July

July in Little Rock is characterized by its scorching temperatures, with the mercury soaring to 91.9°F (33.3°C). Indisputably the hottest month in Little Rock, these relentless high temperatures further emphasize the essence of summer in the city. Even though temperatures peak, rainfall increases, providing a needed relief to the numerous sunny days. Despite it being the heart of summer, humid conditions are prevalent. Come July, Little Rock faces the heat wave of the summer.

Temperature

Temperature records mark July as the warmest month, with highs averaging 91.9°F (33.3°C) and lows at 72.5°F (22.5°C).

Heat index

July's heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are foreseeable. Prolonged effort may bring about heatstroke.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. 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 measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
