The first month of the summer,
June, is also a hot month in
Pattani,
Thailand, with an average temperature fluctuating between 24°C (75.2°F) and 33.3°C (91.9°F).
Temperature
As June takes its course, Pattani's average high-temperature registers at a still hot 33.3°C (91.9°F), closely aligning with the preceding month. An average temperature of 24°C (75.2°F) is recorded during the nights in June.
Heat index
Throughout June, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F).
Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in June is 80%.
Rainfall
In Pattani, in June, during 12 rainfall days, 109mm (4.29") of precipitation is typically accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 141 rainfall days, and 1865mm (73.43") of precipitation is accumulated.
Sea temperature
May and June, with an average sea temperature of 30.3°C (86.5°F), are months with the warmest seawater.
Note: The water temperature above 30°C (86°F) is arguably regarded as unpleasant. The primary purpose of entering the water - cooling down from sunshine and high temperatures - is lost.
Daylight
June has the longest days of the year, with an average of 12h and 30min of daylight.
On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 05:57 and sunset at 18:27. On the last day of June, sunrise is at 06:03 and sunset at 18:33 +07.
