Temperature

The transition from June to July brings an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.8°C (85.6°F), barely different from June's 29.3°C (84.7°F). An average minimum temperature of 19.4°C (66.9°F) is recorded in Nahualate during the month of July.

Heat index

For July, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 35°C (95°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant 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.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
