Weather in July

July, often known as the heart of summer, reaches peak temperatures in Tunica with the mercury pushing to a remarkable 89.4°F (31.9°C). Sunbathing becomes a favored pastime, given the extended sunlight hours. The relatively reduced cloud cover, along with the highest UV index of the year, ensures this time is best enjoyed with sufficient solar protection. Though the chances of rainfall seem to diminish, it does not entirely disappear, offering occasional respite from the heat. Despite the humid weather, July exemplifies the sunny exuberance of Tunica summer.

Temperature

With average high temperatures of 89.4°F (31.9°C) and lows of 72.9°F (22.7°C), July is the warmest month.

Heat index

The heat index value for July is estimated at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
