Temperature

The onset of June marks an average high-temperature of a fiery hot 38.1°C (100.6°F), hardly differing from May's 40.3°C (104.5°F). Lasso's average low-temperature during June nights is observed to be a warm 26.8°C (80.2°F).

Heat index

June's heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 47%.

Rainfall

In June, the rain falls for 10.4 days. Throughout June, 35mm (1.38") of precipitation is accumulated. In Lasso, during the entire year, the rain falls for 96 days and collects up to 407mm (16.02") of precipitation.

UV index

March through June, with an average maximum UV index of 8, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: In June, the maximum UV index of 8 suggests this advice:
Take extra precautions. Protection against sun damage is required. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
