The clearest statewide peak usually shows up in July. The South generally runs warmer than the North. Evansville is one of the strongest higher-WBGT examples in the state, while Fort Wayne is a useful contrast. Local city pages are more useful than a single statewide assumption when you are planning around heat.
In Indiana, WBGT usually matters most when the summer peak arrives rather than across the entire warm season. July is typically the clearest window to watch. The South tends to run warmer than the North, even though the overall pattern is less persistent than in the South.
In Indiana, the biggest planning value comes from watching the midsummer peak and comparing cities before assuming the whole state behaves the same way. That is usually enough to make this page more useful than a simple statewide average.
Klimo WBGT provides real-time Wet Bulb Globe Temperature monitoring to help athletes, workers and outdoor enthusiasts protect themselves from heat-related illness.
Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) is a measure of heat stress that accounts for temperature, humidity, wind speed and sun angle. Rather than relying on the air temperature or the heat index, WBGT captures how the human body actually experiences heat, making it the gold standard for outdoor activity safety decisions.
