The weather in
Taitung City evolves through
July, maintaining the strong heat and continuous rainfall established in
June. July claims the warmest sea temperature of the year, providing an enormous allure for both residents and tourists to engage in varied water activities. Amid higher temperatures, the city retains an equilibrium with fluctuating humidity levels influenced by the recurrent rainfall. July's stable weather sets the groundwork for the equally warm and rainy
August.
Temperature
July, recognised by an average high temperature of 32.3°C (90.1°F) and a low of 26°C (78.8°F), is Taitung City's warmest month.
Heat index
During July, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 44°C (111.2°F).
Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 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.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. 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. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
