June weather forecast
Dompoase, Ghana

June, the first month of the summer in Dompoase, is still a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 30.6°C (87.1°F) and 21.6°C (70.9°F).

Temperature

The shift from May to June includes a small decrease in the average high-temperature, from 33.6°C (92.5°F) to a still hot 30.6°C (87.1°F). The average low-temperature, in June, is a pleasant 21.6°C (70.9°F).

Heat index

During June, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for 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.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in June is 88%.

Resist extreme sun exposure. Guarding against solar damage is essential. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
