With the onset of
June,
Foshan plunges right into the heart of summer. An evident rise in temperature, coupled with peak daylight and sunshine hours, makes for long, hot days. Despite the scorching heat, June also marks the onset of the monsoon, with heavy showers being quite a common occurrence. Stepping outdoors would likely require an umbrella, despite the deceivingly clear and sunny skies.

Heat index
In June, the average heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 44°C.
Watchful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are predicted. Continued exertion could lead to heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
