Temperature

July, with its average high-temperature of 84.9°F (29.4°C) and an average low-temperature of 64°F (17.8°C), holds the record as the warmest month.

Heat index

July's mean heat index is calculated to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. 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. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
