Temperature

The advent of June denotes an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.2°C (91.8°F), subtly different from May's 31.8°C (89.2°F). During June, Bena Makima notes a substantial drop from the daytime peak to an average minimum temperature of 20.2°C (68.4°F).

Heat index

In June, the heat index is evaluated at a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.
Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
