Temperature

The average temperatures reach their apex in July, averaging 88.2°F (31.2°C) at the high end and 65.7°F (18.7°C) at the low end.

Heat index

For most parts of July, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 100.4°F (38°C). Heightened precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
