Weather in July

July is characterized by the zenith of summer in West Memphis, complete with sweltering temperatures. It holds the record for the highest temperatures - mere fractions of a degree differentiate it from August. With the highest wind gusts of the year, July forms an exception in the otherwise calmer summer months. However, it does maintain the constant levels of humidity and daylight experienced during June. Despite the overwhelming heat, breezes and sufficient sunshine offset the intensity, making the long summer days relatively tolerable.

Temperature

West Memphis notes the warmest temperatures in July, with a high average of 88.7°F (31.5°C) and a low of 72.1°F (22.3°C).

Heat index

In July, the average heat index is estimated at a scorching 104°F (40°C). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. 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.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
