July weather forecast
Somalia

July in Somalia marks the beginning of the Xagaa season, characterized by slightly higher temperatures than June and considerably drier conditions.

Compared to June, July is somewhat warmer, signifying a slight increase in heat as the country moves further into the Xagaa season. However, the temperatures are less than those experienced in August, the succeeding month, which records slightly higher temperatures.

July is one of the driest months in the Somali calendar as the Gu season's showers have completely ceased. Consequently, the frequency of rainfall in the country is significantly reduced compared to the preceding months. Despite the reduced rainfall, the occasional shower may occur, especially in the southern regions of the country.

The coastal regions, particularly in the northeastern Puntland and the southern Jubaland, continue to experience maritime influence, leading to marginally cooler temperatures and sporadic light showers. However, these events are typically rare and not substantial enough to affect outdoor activities or travel plans.

July, while not holding any records for extreme weather conditions in Somalia, is distinguished by the onset of the Xagaa season. This period is known for its warm temperatures and extremely dry conditions, offering a stark contrast to the wetter and cooler Gu season experienced earlier in the year.
