July in
Hai Phong is characterized by high temperatures, although slightly less intense than in
June. Short bursts of rain become more frequent, providing relief from the summer heat. The increased length of the day allows more sunlight hours, making this month ideal for exploring the city and its surroundings. An impressive peak of sea temperature is recorded at 30.5°C (86.9°F). Despite the soaring temperatures and high rainfall, the allure of summer remains undimmed.
Temperature
Hai Phong,
Vietnam, experiences its highest average temperatures in July, reaching a peak of 32.1°C (89.8°F) and a minimum of 25.9°C (78.6°F).
Heat index
July's mean heat index is computed to be a burning hot 47°C (116.6°F).
Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.
Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
Humidity
In Hai Phong, the average relative humidity in July is 86%.
Rainfall
In Hai Phong, during July, the rain falls for 11.3 days and regularly aggregates up to 312mm (12.28") of precipitation. Throughout the year, there are 104.3 rainfall days, and 2209mm (86.97") of precipitation is accumulated.
Sea temperature
With an average sea temperature of 30.5°C (86.9°F), July is the month with the warmest seawater.
Note: When the aim is to cool down, temperatures above 30°C (86°F) in waters might not be very inviting.

UV index
The months with the highest UV index are
March through
August, with an average maximum UV index of 12. A UV Index reading of 11, and higher, represents an ultimate health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: A maximum daily UV index of 12 during July morphs into the following directions:
Enforce all necessary safety measures, unprotected skin may suffer burns swiftly. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. Fend off the sun's harsh rays with appropriate clothing, a wide-brim hat, and UV-protective sunglasses. After a swim or an outdoor workout, generously apply and regularly reapply a sunscreen with at least SPF 30, even if the day is cloudy. Be wary! Reflections from sand and water make UV radiation more intense.
