Although the month experiences subtle shifts in weather parameters, the essence of Sorong's tropical climate remains uniform. June tends to be a bit cooler than May, maintaining a mild temperature range that is ideal for the growth of lush greenery in the region. Thus, the month of June adds a refreshing hue to the spectrum of Sorong's tropical weather.

Temperature

With June's advent, Sorong sees an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F), subtly shifted from May's 30.3°C (86.5°F). Sorong experiences a minimal drop from daytime high temperatures, recording an average low-temperature of 24.6°C (76.3°F) throughout June.

Heat index

June's average heat index is estimated at a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. 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 primarily vital for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 84%.

Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in June translates into the following recommendations:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays. Beware! Reflections from sand and water can intensify the Sun's UV radiation.
