June weather forecast
San Pedro, Belize

June in San Pedro marks the full onset of the wet season, with rainfall skyrocketing to an average of 156mm (6.14") over 25.7 days, making it one of the wettest months of the year. Relative humidity peaks, adding to the overall heavy feel in the air. Although the sea temperature rises to its highest level of 29.3°C (84.7°F), June offers fewer opportunities for sunshine, reducing the chances of long sunbathing sessions. Clouds make a more prevalent appearance in the sky during this month. Despite it being the month of summer solstice, June combines hot, humid, and wet conditions, setting it apart from the typically warm and sunny summer months.

Temperature

The average high-temperature in June, at a still hot 30.3°C (86.5°F), reveals a modest deviation from May's 30.5°C (86.9°F). San Pedro logs an average low-temperature of 25.8°C (78.4°F) during the nights of June, subtly lower than its daytime highs.

Heat index

During June, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 39°C (102.2°F). Adopt extra safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Deflect overexposure. Sun protection is a necessity. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat. Attention! The combination of sand and water reflections enhances UV ray intensity.
