July weather forecast
Bayt Wazan, West Bank

The month of July brings to Bayt Wazan the peak of summer heat. Precipitation is non-existent, with rainfall recording at a 0mm (0"). Higher temperatures, cloudless skies, and the longest daylight hours dominate the weather. Despite the decrease in wind speed, the air does not feel stuffy due to the extremely low level of humidity. The intense sunlight does bring elevated UV indices so appropriate sun protection should be considered.

Temperature

Upon the onset of July, Bayt Wazan witnesses an average high-temperature of a hot 30.7°C (87.3°F), showing a close resemblance to the prior month. During the nights in July, Bayt Wazan observes an average low-temperature of 22.9°C (73.2°F).

Heat index

The heat index for July is calculated to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in July is 66%.

Rainfall

July and August are months without rainfall.

Daylight

In July, the average length of the day is 14h and 2min.
On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 05:36 and sunset at 19:49. On the last day of July, sunrise is at 05:53 and sunset at 19:37 EEST.

Sunshine

The months with the most sunshine are June and July, with an average of 12.2h of sunshine.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are June through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: In July, a daily maximum UV index of 7 leads to the following instructions:
Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
