June weather forecast
Bedanda, Guinea-Bissau

June is characterized by a substantial rise in precipitation in Bedanda. The temperatures are mildly cooler providing some relief from the rising humidity. Greater cloud coverage heralds the peak of the rainy season, with lesser daylight but unchanged sunshine hours. Winds dynamically interact with the rainfall, creating a unique weather pattern. It receives 57mm (2.24") of rainfall, the highest so far this year, while the relative humidity jumps to 68%, and high temperature falls slightly to 34.8°C (94.6°F).

Temperature

June brings an average high-temperature of a hot 34.8°C (94.6°F), nearly identical to the preceding month. In June, Bedanda experiences an average nighttime temperature of 25.1°C (77.2°F).

Heat index

June's mean heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in June is 68%.

Note: During June, 7 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
