Temperature

June marks a minor ascent in the average high-temperature in El Dorado, adjusting from May's warm 82.9°F (28.3°C) to a hot 91.6°F (33.1°C). Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 70.2°F (21.2°C) in June.

Heat index

The heat index value for June is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 113°F (45°C). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Follow precautions and abide by sun safety rules. Deterrence of sunburn is imperative. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
