West Miami, FL

Temperature

West Miami's weather in July displays an average high-temperature of a still tropical 87.8°F (31°C), showing minor disparity from June's 86.5°F (30.3°C). Nights in July exhibit a minor reduction to an average low temperature of 81.3°F (27.4°C).

Heat index

In July, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Humidity

In July, the average relative humidity is 71%.

Rainfall

In July, the rain falls for 17 days. Throughout July, 1.61" (41mm) of precipitation is accumulated. In West Miami, during the entire year, the rain falls for 144.3 days and collects up to 10.55" (268mm) of precipitation.

UV index

May through October, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in July translates into the following recommendations:
Implement precautions and maintain sun safety methods. Avoidance of sunburn is demanded. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation.
