Weather in July
Temperature
In South Charleston, the peak average temperatures are observed in July, with a high of 85.6°F (29.8°C) and a low of 63.3°F (17.4°C).Heat index
July's mean heat index is estimated at a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

Continue precautions and advocate sun safety advice. Deterrence of sunburn is indispensable. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
