July weather forecast
Aurora, Suriname

July in Aurora, Suriname, sees a further dip in rainfall, chalking up to 149mm (5.87"), thus continuing the descending trajectory from May's peak. Unsurprisingly, relative humidity parallels the rainfall pattern and decreases a step further. An impressive increase in sunshine hours coupled with a consistent temperature profile adds a sunny vibrance to this month. Confirming its consistency, the wind speed and gusts stay within the annual fluctuations, similar to their past performances. Summing up, it is the reduction in rainfall, humidity, and the augmentation of sunlit days that headline the weather highlights for July.

Temperature

Aurora experiences a subtle adjustment in high-temperatures to a still tropical 30.4°C (86.7°F) with the onset of July, maintaining near parity with June's 30°C (86°F). An average low-temperature of 20.3°C (68.5°F) is recorded during the nights in July in Aurora.

Heat index

For most parts of July, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.

Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
