Weather in July

July, like June, is another hot summer month in Guatemala, Cuba, with an average temperature varying between 31.3°C (88.3°F) and 23.3°C (73.9°F).

Temperature

The weather during July records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.3°C (88.3°F), closely mirroring the preceding month. Guatemala encounters an average low-temperature of 23.3°C (73.9°F) during July nights.

Heat index

In July, the average heat index is calculated to be an extremely hot 42°C (107.6°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in July in Guatemala is 80%.

Rainfall

In Guatemala, in July, during 21.3 rainfall days, 87mm (3.43") of precipitation is typically accumulated. In Guatemala, during the entire year, the rain falls for 230.9 days and collects up to 812mm (31.97") of precipitation.

Sunshine

July and August, with an average of 11.2h of sunshine, are months with the most sunshine.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index in Guatemala are May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: The maximum daily UV index, 7 in July, converts into the following recommendations:
Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
