July weather forecast
Haraze, Chad

July in Haraze, Chad, is synonymous with the peak of the rainy season. The weather gets defined by the highest rainfall for the year, measuring 123mm (4.84"), well distributed across an average of 19.4 days of the month. The month also introduces cooler temperatures, mitigating the heat of preceding months. An impressive rise to 68% in the relative humidity enhances the atmospheric moisture, feeding into the prolific rainfall. With such changes, July is undeniably distinct from the arid climate experienced in the initial months of the year.

Temperature

Haraze's weather subtly changes with the onset of July, barely falling from a sweltering 37.1°C (98.8°F) in June to a hot 32.6°C (90.7°F). Nighttime temperature dips to a mean of 23.8°C (74.8°F) during July.

Heat index

For July, the heat index is estimated at a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
