Temperature

June's onset witnesses a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C) in May to a hot 90.1°F (32.3°C). During the nights in June, an average low-temperature of 69.8°F (21°C) is observed.

Heat index

June's mean heat index is evaluated at a scorching 107.6°F (42°C). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
