Temperature

July's arrival coincides with a soft drop in the average high-temperature, subtly decreasing from June's very hot 38.8°C (101.8°F) to a hot 33.9°C (93°F). Throughout July, a steady low-temperature average of 23.9°C (75°F) is noted.

Heat index

The heat index in July is appraised at a life-threatening hot 45°C (113°F). Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.
Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
