July weather forecast
Al Wajh, Saudi Arabia

In July, Al Wajh is in the firm grip of summer with temperatures frequently touching their apex. Despite the slightly risen humidity and cloud cover, rainfall remains absent like in the preceding months. On an interesting note, the sea temperature reaches its highest for the year. A calming pattern is observed in the wind movement, acting as a pleasing contrast to the high temperatures. The transition from July to August does not bring about drastic changes in climate; however, it does signify the weather’s movement towards a decline from the peak heat.

The average high-temperature during July registers at a torrid 35°C (95°F), maintaining a close resemblance to the previous month. In July, the temperature in Al Wajh drops to an average of 28.2°C (82.8°F) at night.

Heat index

For July, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
