Temperature

July is the month that records the highest temperatures, with averages ranging from a high of 29.4°C (84.9°F) to a low of 25.5°C (77.9°F).

Heat index

The heat index for July is calculated to be a torrid 37°C (98.6°F). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. 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 particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
