July weather forecast
Apoera, Suriname

July in Apoera, Suriname, manifests a marginal dip in rainfall from June, while maintaining high humidity. The weather exhibits a rise in daily average temperatures. Substantial cloud cover coupled with reduced sunshine hours results in subdued daylight. Despite this, the UV index remains high, posing a cautionary note for those venturing outdoors.

Temperature

Apoera experiences an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31°C (87.8°F) in July, marking an insignificant shift from 30.5°C (86.9°F) in June. The average low-temperature of 21.9°C (71.4°F) is witnessed in Apoera during July.

Heat index

July's mean heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 43°C (109.4°F). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Undertake protective measures and comply with sun safety rules. Shielding against skin and eye damage is essential. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
