July weather forecast
Oxford, FL

July, like June, is a hot summer month in Oxford, Florida, with an average temperature ranging between min 74.5°F (23.6°C) and max 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

Peak temperatures are observed in July and August, averaging a high-temperature of 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Heat index

In July, the average heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Humidity

July through September, with an average relative humidity of 79%, are the most humid months.

Rainfall

The month with the most rainfall is July, when the rain falls for 19.1 days and typically aggregates up to 2.2" (56mm) of precipitation.

UV index

May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Oxford. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The maximum UV index, 7 during July, leads to the following recommendations:
Implement precautions and maintain sun safety methods. Avoidance of sunburn is demanded. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. Fend off the sun's harsh rays with appropriate clothing, a wide-brim hat, and UV-protective sunglasses.
