Weather in June
June in
Burkina Faso marks the onset of the rainy season in full swing. The month witnesses a noticeable increase in rainfall, providing a significant relief from the intense heat experienced in the preceding months. Cities including Ouagadougou, Tabtenga, and Loumbila typically observe temperatures ranging from 22°C (71.6°F) at night to 35°C (95°F) during the day, indicating a further reduction in heat.
Comparatively, the transition from
May to June represents a significant shift in Burkina Faso's climate. The rise in rainfall, coupled with decreasing temperatures, offers a stark contrast to the extremely hot and dry conditions that characterized
April and May.
The increased precipitation in June, ranging between 70mm (2.76") to 110mm (4.33"), marks the beginning of the most substantial period of rainfall in Burkina Faso. The land, which had been parched and barren, starts to rejuvenate. The usually clear skies give way to increased cloud cover, reducing the intensity of the sunlight.
Looking ahead to
July, the temperatures remain relatively consistent, with a minor decrease in the average heat. The trend of high rainfall continues into July, making the transition from June to July less dramatic than the shift from the hot season to the rainy season witnessed in May to June. Therefore, June stands as the first full month of the rainy season, characterized by cooler temperatures and significant precipitation.
