Weather in July

July takes Franklin's warmth a notch higher, making it the hottest month of the year. The temperatures range from mellow lows of 69.3°F (20.7°C) to scorching highs around 88°F (31.1°C). The consistently high UV index and more extended daylight hours set the perfect stage for various outdoor activities such as hiking, picnicking, and barbecuing. Evenings offer some respite from the heat with a mild decrease in temperature post-sunset. Despite the soaring temperatures, July also brings its share of rainfall, keeping the landscape lush and green.

Temperature

The warmest month is July, with an average high-temperature of 88°F (31.1°C) and an average low-temperature of 69.3°F (20.7°C).

Heat index

July's average heat index is calculated to be a blistering 104°F (40°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades.
