July weather forecast
Santolan, Philippines

July, the same as June, in Santolan, Philippines, is another hot summer month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 30.5°C (86.9°F) and 25.2°C (77.4°F).

Temperature

Heat index

The average heat index in July is appraised at a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

On sunny days, it's ideal to wear sunglasses that filter out UVA and UVB rays.
