Bassa, Cameroon

The first month of the summer, June, is still a warm month in Bassa, Cameroon, with an average temperature varying between 23.8°C (74.8°F) and 29.8°C (85.6°F).

Temperature

June notes an average high-temperature of a warm 29.8°C (85.6°F), subtly differing from May's 32.2°C (90°F). In Bassa, the expected average low-temperature for June is 23.8°C (74.8°F).

Heat index

June's average heat index is estimated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in June is 83%.

Undertake protective measures and comply with sun safety rules. Shielding against skin and eye damage is essential. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
