Embracing its summer stride,
Yinchuan,
China revels in sweltering
June weather. Unlike
May that serves as a gateway, June transforms into the region's first fully-baked, sun-drenched span of the year. The balancing act of nature can be witnessed as the rising levels of heat result in escalating humidity and larger readings on the UV index. Hastening towards
July, more rainfall is to be expected though it does little to offset the temperature hikes. In this sweltering month, the temperatures climb steeply from 15.1°C (59.2°F) to 27.8°C (82°F).
Temperature
With the onset of June, Yinchuan's average high-temperature sees a modest rise, moving from May's warm 24.2°C (75.6°F) to a still moderately hot 27.8°C (82°F). Yinchuan anticipates a stark contrast in temperature during June nights, with an average low of 15.1°C (59.2°F).
Heat index
For June, the heat index is evaluated at 29°C (84.2°F). Persistent activity under exposure might lead to a feeling of weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
Humidity
In Yinchuan, the average relative humidity in June is 56%.

Note: The UV index of 10 in June translates into these instructions:
With the absence of protection, damage to skin and eyes can occur instantly. Ensure precautions are taken. The Sun's UV radiation is most powerful between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. To the extent possible, limit exposure to the direct sun during these hours. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation. For optimal sun protection, use sunscreen of no less than 30 SPF. This not only prevents sunburn but also reduces radiation damage.
