July weather forecast
Coquilo, Angola

July, like June, is a hot winter month in Coquilo, Angola, with an average temperature ranging between max 32.2°C (90°F) and min 15.8°C (60.4°F).

Temperature

The start of July sees the average high-temperature at a still tropical 32.2°C (90°F), showing little difference from June's 30.4°C (86.7°F). Coquilo, after an intense day, registers a significant cooling to an average low-temperature of 15.8°C (60.4°F) throughout July.

Heat index

During July, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 37°C (98.6°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Humidity

With an average relative humidity of 59%, July is the least humid month.

Rainfall

July is the month with the least rainfall. Rain falls for 2.3 days and accumulates 1mm (0.04") of precipitation.

Daylight

In Coquilo, the average length of the day in July is 11h and 46min.

Sunshine

In July, the average sunshine is 7.6h.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are April through September, with an average maximum UV index of 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: A maximum UV index of 6 in July translates into the following recommendations:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
