Temperature

The onset of July brings a small shift in high-temperatures, falling from a sweltering 39.8°C (103.6°F) in June to a still very hot 36.4°C (97.5°F). Kaugama reports an average low-temperature of 28.3°C (82.9°F) during the nights of July.

Heat index

For most parts of July, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
