Weather in June

The first month of the summer, June, is a hot month in Athens, Louisiana, with an average temperature ranging between max 91.8°F (33.2°C) and min 70.5°F (21.4°C).

June comes with a subtle rise, with the average high-temperature adjusting from a warm 84°F (28.9°C) in May to a tropical 91.8°F (33.2°C). During the month of June, the nighttime temperature falls to an average of 70.5°F (21.4°C).

Heat index

June's mean heat index is appraised at a burning hot 113°F (45°C). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. 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.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
