Heat index

In June, the heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 107.6°F (42°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Humidity

Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in June suggests the following recommendations:
Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but keep in mind that not all shade structures provide complete protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
