July weather forecast
Balho, Djibouti

The scorching summer persists through July, marked by high temperatures. Interestingly though, July introduces a noticeable increase in rainfall, taking readings up to 10mm (0.39"). Wind conditions pose a change, speeding up to an average of 14.6km/h (9.1mph), possibly offering some relief from the persistent heat. Despite these changes, the UV index remains unchanged at 8. Understanding the weather dynamics, it comes as no surprise that July records the highest low-temperature value of the year, at a stifling 31.4°C (88.5°F).

Temperature

July is the warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 37.9°C (100.2°F) and an average low-temperature of 31.4°C (88.5°F).

Heat index

July's heat index is estimated at a scorching 44°C (111.2°F). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.
Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
