Weather in July
Temperature
Kataragama in July witnesses an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.7°C (87.3°F), indicating a slight variation from June's 30.6°C (87.1°F). Kataragama documents a consistent average low-temperature of 26.3°C (79.3°F) at night during July.Heat index
Throughout July, the heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
