The heart of summer lies in July, the hottest month in Macon. The temperature escalates steeply, uplifting the mercury to as high as 91.2°F (32.9°C).

Temperature

July is the month when Macon experiences its warmest temperatures, averaging a high of 91.2°F (32.9°C) and a low of 73°F (22.8°C).

Heat index

During July, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Take heed: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Heatstroke is a potential outcome of continuous activity.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a 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 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. 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 highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
