July weather forecast
Gamou, Niger

July, like June, in Gamou, Niger, is another sweltering summer month, with an average temperature varying between 28.8°C (83.8°F) and 36.9°C (98.4°F).

Temperature

July's onset corresponds with a subtle shift in the average high-temperature, slightly moving from a blisteringly hot 40.3°C (104.5°F) in June to a fiery hot 36.9°C (98.4°F). Gamou experiences a mean temperature of 28.8°C (83.8°F) during July nights.

Heat index

July's heat index is calculated to be a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. 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. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
