Weather in July

July marks the peak of the summer season in McPherson, with temperatures soaring to 91.9°F (33.3°C), the highest of the year. Locals often retreat to Castle Rock Water Park or local pools to cool off during the intense heat. Extended daylight hours enhance the vibrancy of the city, while rainfall levels remain consistent with June, further consolidating the dry summer conditions. Despite the scorching heat, wind speeds tend to decline in comparison with previous months. Moving towards August, the region continues to battle with the summer heat, while starting to anticipate the onset of more temperate months ahead.

Temperature

The month of July sees the highest average temperatures, reaching 91.9°F (33.3°C) at the peak and 71.2°F (21.8°C) at the low.

Heat index

July's heat index is calculated to be a scorching 105.8°F (41°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
