Pineville, LA

As summer begins in earnest, June in Pineville identifies itself with substantial heat and humidity. A considerable increase in temperatures captures the essence of a typical South-eastern US summer.

Temperature

June's onset brings a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 84.6°F (29.2°C) in May to a tropical 91.2°F (32.9°C). An average low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C) is anticipated throughout the nights during June.

Heat index

June's mean heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 114.8°F (46°C). Beware: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are very likely. Heatstroke is imminent with prolonged activity.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
