June weather forecast
Batie, Burkina Faso

June in Batie announces the arrival of summer with an escalation in humidity and a peak in average low temperature. This rise in humidity in June is complemented by a decrease in sunshine hours, underlining the characteristically hazy summer weather in Batie. The maximum wind speed in June reaches 10.4km/h (6.5mph), aiding in the dispersion of the humidity. The longest days of the year belong to this month with maximum daylight. Yet, with only half of the daylight being sunny, June offers a tolerably warm outdoor experience.

Temperature

A minor adjustment in Batie's average high-temperature is noted with the start of June, touching a still very hot 35.3°C (95.5°F) from May's 37.6°C (99.7°F). June nights observe an average temperature dip to a moderately hot 24°C (75.2°F).

Heat index

June's mean heat index is estimated at a blazing hot 47°C (116.6°F). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 62%.

Conform to measures and uphold sun safety traditions. Warding off skin and eye harm is necessary. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. During bright days, sunglasses that offer UVA and UVB defense are recommended.
