Heat index

During June, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 43°C (109.4°F). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. 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. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

UV index

The average daily maximum UV index in June is 8. A UV Index reading of 8 to 10 represents a very high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.
Note: The maximum daily UV index of 8 in June converts into the following recommendations:
Always take safety measures. The skin and eyes are at risk if left exposed. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays play a pivotal role in reducing solar eye damage.
