The onset of July brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.9°C, nearly matching the June temperature. Coloncito, in July, logs an average low-temperature of 24.3°C, a subtle step down from daytime readings.

Heat index

The heat index value during July is calculated to be a torrid 36°C. Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.
From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in July suggests the following recommendations:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
