Temperature

Sunbury, North Carolina, records the warmest temperatures in July, averaging a high of 87.8°F (31°C) and a low of 71.4°F (21.9°C).

Heat index

The heat index in July is evaluated at a sweltering 102.2°F (39°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
