Weather in July

July, the same as June, in Salem, Alabama, is another tropical summer month, with an average temperature varying between 91°F (32.8°C) and 71.2°F (21.8°C).

Temperature

July is the warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 91°F (32.8°C) and an average low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C).

Heat index

The average heat index in July is estimated at a blisteringly hot 111.2°F (44°C). Notice: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued strenuous activity might lead to heatstroke.
Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
