Temperature

With the beginning of June, Sumter's average high-temperature sees a minor increase, transitioning from a moderately hot 80.2°F (26.8°C) in May to a tropical 87.4°F (30.8°C). In Sumter, June is marked by an average low-temperature of 70°F (21.1°C).

Heat index

For most parts of June, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 100.4°F (38°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

The average relative humidity in June is 74%.
