The month of July sees the highest average temperatures, reaching 90.7°F (32.6°C) at the peak and 69.6°F (20.9°C) at the low.

Heat index

The heat index in July is calculated to be a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
