June weather forecast
Dagapela, Bhutan

June poses as the hottest month of the year in Dagapela, Bhutan, recording the highest temperatures. The regularly high rainfall and increased humidity further add to the heat intensity. The city's climate undergoes immense transformations, departing from the moderate weather experienced earlier in the year. The ensuing months will carry on the trend of high rainfall and high temperatures.

Temperature

The advent of June signifies a minor shift to an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.2°C (91.8°F), aligning closely with May. In the month of June, an average of 24.8°C (76.6°F) marks the low-temperature.

Heat index

June's average heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 48°C (118.4°F). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Prolonged effort can result in heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.
