July weather forecast
Matinga, Angola

July, the same as June, in Matinga, Angola, is a hot winter month, with an average temperature varying between 32.6°C (90.7°F) and 20.9°C (69.6°F).

Temperature

The beginning of July records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.6°C (90.7°F), almost echoing the conditions of the previous month. Matinga encounters a steady low-temperature average of 20.9°C (69.6°F) throughout the month of July.

Heat index

For July, the heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

In July, the average relative humidity is 58%.

Note: The UV index of 7 in July translates into these instructions:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection.
