July weather forecast
Taif, Senegal

July, like June, in Taif, Senegal, is a very hot summer month, with an average temperature varying between 25.8°C (78.4°F) and 36.1°C (97°F).

Temperature

The average high-temperature shows a slight dip in July, from June's torrid 39.5°C (103.1°F) to a still fiery hot 36.1°C (97°F). During the month of July, Taif's nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 25.8°C (78.4°F).

Heat index

In July, the average heat index is computed to be a burning hot 48°C (118.4°F). Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.
Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in July is 59%.

Rainfall

In Taif, during July, the rain falls for 14.3 days and regularly aggregates up to 58mm (2.28") of precipitation. Throughout the year, there are 68 rainfall days, and 285mm (11.22") of precipitation is accumulated.

Sunshine

In July, the average sunshine is 8.7h.

UV index

January through March, July, August, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.
Note: A maximum UV index of 7 in July translates into the following recommendations:
Act on precautions and pay attention to sun safety recommendations. Avoidance of sunburn is obligatory. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
