July, like June, in Elkridge, Maryland, is a moderately hot summer month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 70°F (21.1°C) and an average high of 85.6°F (29.8°C).

Temperature

July, with its average high-temperature of 85.6°F (29.8°C) and an average low-temperature of 70°F (21.1°C), holds the record as the warmest month.

The heat index in July is calculated to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
