July weather forecast
Algiers, Algeria

Algiers experiences the peak of the summer season in July. As the city receives its minimum rainfall for the year at 3mm (0.12"), the summer sun heavily dominates. Residents and tourists can bask in the brilliant weather, perfect for exploring the city's rich history. The long sunny days make any outdoor pursuits particularly delightful, enhancing any visit or stay.

Temperature

The start of July brings a subtle shift in the average high-temperature, edging up from June's warm 28.4°C (83.1°F) to a hot 31.6°C (88.9°F). A noteworthy thermal contrast characterizes Algiers's July nights, with temperatures averaging at a refreshing 19.3°C (66.7°F).

Heat index

July's heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. 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 especially vital to children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Humidity

In July, the average relative humidity is 73%.

Rainfall

July is the month with the least rainfall. Rain falls for 2 days and accumulates 3mm (0.12") of precipitation.

Sea temperature

In Algiers, in July, the average water temperature is 24.1°C (75.4°F).
Note: Considering one's resistance to cold, elements like sunshine, wind, and the prevailing temperature matter when taking a swim in 24.1°C (75.4°F) waters. (For comparison, the Olympic swimming standard is set between 25°C (77°F) and 28°C (82.4°F).)

Daylight

In Algiers, the average length of the day in July is 14h and 23min.
On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 05:32 and sunset at 20:10. On the last day of July, sunrise is at 05:53 and sunset at 19:55 CET.

Sunshine

With an average of 11.3h of sunshine, July has the most sunshine of the year.

UV index

June and July, with an average maximum UV index of 10, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 8 to 10 represents a very high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The UV index of 10 in July translates into these instructions:
Protection should always be a priority. Skin and eyes are vulnerable without it. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. Sun protection is enhanced with clothing that boasts a tight weave yet offers a loose fit. Despite the cloud cover, sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 should be generously applied and reapplied, particularly after a swim or an outdoor workout. Watch out! Reflections from sand and water can surge UV radiation exposure.
