July weather forecast
Cambutal, Panama

Cambutal witnesses similar climatological patterns in July as the months before. Herein, the city continues to experience high precipitation levels, coupled with a concomitant high level of humidity. Despite consistent rainfall, the related abundance of water bodies beckons a different set of avian communities, thereby enhancing the local biodiversity. While this may slightly impact the planning of outdoor activities, the pleasant temperature still allows for comfortable evening outings. The weather in July thus embraces continuity from June and anticipates the conditions persistent up until August.

Temperature

The commencement of July brings an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F), marking an inconsequential divergence from June. An average low-temperature of 22.3°C (72.1°F) is expected during July.

Heat index

The heat index for July is calculated to be a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Humidity

The months with the highest humidity are July through October, with an average relative humidity of 88%.

Rainfall

In July, the rain falls for 30.1 days. Throughout July, 277mm (10.91") of precipitation is accumulated. In Cambutal, Panama, during the entire year, the rain falls for 269.3 days and collects up to 2235mm (87.99") of precipitation.

UV index

July, August, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.
Note: In July, an average UV index of 6 transforms into the following instructions:
Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
