Weather in June

With the advent of June, Aiken continues to bask in the summer heat. The city enjoys the longest daylight hours of the year. The brightness of the sun and the accompanying warmth lend a buzz to the city's atmosphere. The temperature fluctuates between 70.3°F (21.3°C) and 88.3°F (31.3°C), making it one of the hottest months. An interesting fact about June is its lowest wind speed at just 6.3mph (10.1km/h).

Temperature

June witnesses a subtle temperature ascent, adjusting from a moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C) in May to a hot 88.3°F (31.3°C). June brings an average low-temperature of 70.3°F (21.3°C) to Aiken.

Heat index

For most parts of June, the heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 102.2°F (39°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
