These elements conspire to create the city's most refreshing and vivacious weather pattern.

Temperature

June's arrival brings an average high-temperature of a sweltering 38.2°C (100.8°F), demonstrating subtle variation from the preceding month. During the month of June, an average low-temperature of 27.8°C (82°F) is recorded.

Heat index

June's heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 45°C (113°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Humidity

In Kaya, the average relative humidity in June is 42%.

Note: In June, the average maximum UV index of 8 translates into the following recommendations:
Always be careful, as unprotected skin and eyes might burn in no time. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
