July broadcasts a continuity of the wet spell that characterizes the monsoons in
Siguiri. Rain-laden clouds continue to dominate the city's skies, often breaking into a heavy downpour. Despite the consistent rainfall, a slight dip in temperatures provides a much-needed coolness in the city's weather. A precipitation amounting to 248mm (9.76") stands as a testament to the monsoon’s intensity for this month. The sound of the rain hitting the roof becomes a familiar melody, providing a calming backdrop to indoor activities.
Temperature

Heat index
The heat index value during July is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 46°C (114.8°F).
Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. 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.
