Bibasse, Gabon

June, the first month of the summer in Bibasse, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 29°C (84.2°F) and min 20.2°C (68.4°F).

Temperature

June's commencement is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 29°C (84.2°F), diverging marginally from May's 30.3°C (86.5°F). June witnesses an average nighttime temperature of 20.2°C (68.4°F).

Heat index

In June, the average heat index is computed to be a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
