With the onset of July, Santa Marcela's average high-temperature clocks in at a still hot 31.1°C (88°F), showing a minor fluctuation from the previous month. An average temperature of 25.5°C (77.9°F) is recorded during the nights in July.

Heat index

The average heat index in July is calculated to be a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. 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. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

To mitigate harm from sun exposure, pick sunglasses offering UVA and UVB defense.
