July weather forecast
Palikir, Micronesia

As the year progresses into its latter half, July showcases subtly distinct characteristics. A close examination reveals rainfall levels hover around 210mm (8.27"), retaining a near-identical pattern to June. Cloud coverage remains partial, thereby allowing sunlight to filter through brighten the days. The consistent sea temperature continues to favour a variety of water activities. Noticeably, it's the gentle reduction in humidity that brings about any significant change, providing a somewhat drier environment.

Temperature

The transition into July brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29°C (84.2°F) that remains consistent with June. Palikir in July experiences a minor decline in temperature, with an average low of 28°C (82.4°F) at night.

Heat index

For most parts of July, the heat index is appraised at a hot 34°C (93.2°F). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.

UV strength is notably upped by the reflection of sand and water.
