July weather forecast
Port Sudan, Sudan

July is characteristically the warmest month in the city of Port Sudan with the highest temperature recording at 40.1°C (104.2°F). Even as nighttime arrives, the temperatures remain uncomfortably high. Coupled with intensive UV exposure, protective measures against the harmful rays are indispensable. The dry desert winds and minimal rainfall result in overall arid conditions. As August approaches, remarkably high temperatures and clear skies continue to prevail.

Temperature

Port Sudan's July reports an average high-temperature of a scorching 40.1°C (104.2°F), exhibiting a minor difference from June. During July, Port Sudan experiences a consistent low-temperature average of 28.2°C (82.8°F).

Heat index

During July, the heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 54°C (129.2°F). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Humidity

July is the least humid month, with an average relative humidity of 49%.

UV index

March through September, with an average maximum UV index of 12, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 11, and higher, represents an ultimate health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: A typical high UV index of 12 in July suggests the following recommendations:
Implement every essential safety step. Individuals with fair skin might receive burns in less than 5 minutes. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun. Apply and frequently reapply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen after every two hours, or immediately after a swim or outdoor exercise. Be mindful! Sand and water reflections can up the Sun's UV exposure.
