Heat index

The heat index value for June is computed to be a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. 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 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in June is 76%.

Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. Sun protection is enhanced with clothing that boasts a tight weave yet offers a loose fit.
