Weather in July

July, like June, in Petersville, Kentucky, is another warm summer month, with an average temperature varying between 85.3°F (29.6°C) and 64.9°F (18.3°C).

Temperature

July, characterized by an average high temperature of 85.3°F (29.6°C) and a low temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C), is generally the warmest month.

Heat index

July's average heat index is computed to be a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
Factoring in the heat index, values are geared towards shaded areas with light breezes. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. It's wise to wear UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses when the sun shines brightly.
