Temperature

July temperatures tend to peak at an average high of 85.6°F (29.8°C) and dip to a low of 66.6°F (19.2°C).

Heat index

The heat index for July is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
