July weather forecast
Tacoma, FL

July, like June, is another tropical summer month in Tacoma, Florida, with an average temperature varying between 74.5°F (23.6°C) and 90.1°F (32.3°C).

Temperature

The commencement of July records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 90.1°F (32.3°C), barely varying from June's 89.6°F (32°C). Tacoma experiences a steady low-temperature of 74.5°F (23.6°C) throughout July.

Heat index

The heat index for July is computed to be a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Keep alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke is a potential danger with continued physical activity.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Humidity

July through September, with an average relative humidity of 78%, are the most humid months.

Rainfall

The month with the most rainfall is July, when the rain falls for 21.3 days and typically aggregates up to 3.66" (93mm) of precipitation.

Daylight

In Tacoma, Florida, the average length of the day in July is 13h and 49min.

Sunshine

The average sunshine in July is 10.6h.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: The maximum daily UV index, 7 in July, converts into the following recommendations:
Elude overexposure. Fair-skinned people could get burnt in less than 20 minutes. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
