July weather forecast
Ettaiyapuram, India

July, like June, in Ettaiyapuram, India, is another sweltering rainy (monsoon) season month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 26.8°C (80.2°F) and 35.8°C (96.4°F).

Temperature

Ettaiyapuram's July average high-temperature settles at a still torrid 35.8°C (96.4°F), showing a near match with the preceding month. The mean low-temperature during July nights is a moderately hot 26.8°C (80.2°F).

Heat index

The heat index value for July is computed to be a blistering 44°C (111.2°F). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. 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 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

UV index

March through August, with an average maximum UV index of 8, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.
Note: A daily maximum UV index of 8 in July translates into the following instructions:
Always use protective measures; unprotected skin might suffer damage in a short span. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
