July weather forecast
Niarba, Burkina Faso

July, the same as June, in Niarba, Burkina Faso, is another hot summer month, with an average temperature ranging between max 33.2°C (91.8°F) and min 24.2°C (75.6°F).

Temperature

July indicates a minor shift in the average high-temperature, from June's sweltering 37.3°C (99.1°F) to a tropical 33.2°C (91.8°F). An average low-temperature of 24.2°C (75.6°F) is observed during July nights.

Heat index

For July, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. 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 particularly relevant to children. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
The body's inherent cooling system operates through perspiration, wherein evaporating sweat offsets excessive heat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in July in Niarba is 66%.

UV index

The months with the lowest UV index are January, June through October and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: In July, the average maximum UV index of 7 translates into the following recommendations:
Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
