Temperature

Richardsville reaches its highest average temperatures in July, measuring 87.1°F (30.6°C) at the peak and 68°F (20°C) at the lowest.

Heat index

During July, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
