What July feels like
July storms build in the afternoon, break hard, and leave the air heavier than they found it. The Mississippi runs low and slow now, the barges look enormous against the sandbars, and Mud Island is the closest thing downtown has to a breeze.
Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. Full tropical humidity: mornings are your friend, and shade is currency. Most afternoons push past 90°.
