July, the same as June, in Pitlam, India, is a hot rainy (monsoon) season month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 30.5°C (86.9°F) and 24.4°C (75.9°F).

Temperature

The onset of July entails a subtle temperature shift, as the average high-temperature eases from a sweltering 35.2°C (95.4°F) in June to a tropical 30.5°C (86.9°F). Pitlam reports a consistent average low-temperature of 24.4°C (75.9°F) throughout July nights.

Heat index

During July, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 37°C (98.6°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. 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 hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
