Weather in June

June signals the onset of summer and with it come noticeably higher temperatures. Compared to the comfortable warmth of May, June stands out with a significant increase in temperature and sunlight hours. Humidity barely decreases, contributing to a sweltering combination of temperature and moisture in the atmosphere. The frequency of precipitation begins to reduce, with noticeable decreases in rainfall amounts. It's the prelude to the peak summer months of July and August when Jackson experiences its highest temperatures and greatest sunlight exposure.

One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids.
