June ushers the midway point of the year with the highest rainfall till this month, reaching 148mm (5.83"). The temperatures hover at warm levels, indicating a warm, moist climate. As the month progresses, precipitation becomes a more common sight, turning the surroundings lush. Humidity reaches a peak, adding an essence of stickiness to the atmosphere. Despite the rain, day lengths remain consistent, ensuring substantial sunlight hours.
Temperature
The shift from
May to June includes a minor decrease in the average high-temperature, lightly dropping from a very hot 35.7°C (96.3°F) to a hot 32.3°C (90.1°F). An average low-temperature of 22.1°C (71.8°F) is expected during June.
Heat index
June's heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 42°C (107.6°F). Adopt extra preventive measures, the occurrence of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is likely. Heatstroke may follow extended activity.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, 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. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
