July, the same as June, in Richmond, Texas, is another hot summer month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 75.2°F (24°C) and an average high of 92.3°F (33.5°C).

As Richmond transitions into July, the average high-temperature stands at a still tropical 92.3°F (33.5°C), offering little variation from the preceding month. Richmond observes an average nighttime low-temperature of 75.2°F (24°C) during the month of July.

Heat index

For most parts of July, the heat index is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 120.2°F (49°C). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.
