July weather forecast
Citrus Ridge, FL

July, like June, is another tropical summer month in Citrus Ridge, Florida, with temperature in the range of an average high of 90.1°F (32.3°C) and an average low of 75.6°F (24.2°C).

Temperature

With the onset of July, the average high-temperature registers at a still hot 90.1°F (32.3°C), subtly different from June's 89.2°F (31.8°C). In July, the nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 75.6°F (24.2°C).

Heat index

During July, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are foreseeable. Prolonged effort may bring about heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.
Note: In July, a daily maximum UV index of 7 leads to the following instructions:
Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
