Temperature

The arrival of July correlates with a minor temperature reduction, down from June's fiery hot 38.3°C (100.9°F) to a tropical 34.7°C (94.5°F). July brings Illo a consistent average low-temperature of 25.3°C (77.5°F).

Heat index

Throughout July, the heat index is estimated at a blazing hot 45°C (113°F). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Prolonged effort can result in heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
