June weather forecast
El Carrizal, El Salvador

June, the first month of the summer in El Carrizal, is still a tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 21.2°C (70.2°F) and an average high of 30.7°C (87.3°F).

Temperature

The transition into June shows a subtle variation to a still hot 30.7°C (87.3°F) from May's 32.1°C (89.8°F) in the average high-temperature. In June, the average low-temperature is a pleasant 21.2°C (70.2°F).

Heat index

The heat index in June is estimated at an extremely hot 40°C (104°F). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.

UV index

January, June through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index in El Carrizal. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: In June, the average maximum UV index of 6 translates into the following recommendations:
Ward off overexposure. Defence against solar harm is crucial. The Sun's UV radiation is most powerful between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. To the extent possible, limit exposure to the direct sun during these hours. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
