Heat index

The heat index for June is estimated at a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for 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.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

In June, the average relative humidity is 77%.

UV index

February through July, October through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: In June, the UV index of 6 transforms into the following advice:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
