Temperature

With the onset of June, a modest change to a sweltering 38.5°C (101.3°F) from May's 40.3°C (104.5°F) is noted in high-temperature. The low-temperature averages to a warm 27.3°C (81.1°F) during the nights of June.

Heat index

The average heat index in June is appraised at a blazing hot 47°C (116.6°F). Mind: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke can develop with continued physical activity.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Immediate care is essential; skin and eyes can be harmed in no time without it. UV radiation from the sun is at its strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure during these hours. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades.
