Temperature

During the shift to July, a minor reduction in average high-temperature is observed, shifting from a hot 34.3°C (93.7°F) in June to a still tropical 30.7°C (87.3°F). Gamba, in July, observes a steady average low-temperature of 22.7°C (72.9°F).

Heat index

For most parts of July, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. 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 highly important for children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
