Temperature
As
May makes way for June, Panjim's average high-temperature eases from a hot 33.4°C (92.1°F) to a still tropical 30.3°C (86.5°F). An average low-temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F) is noted during the nights in June in Panjim.
Heat index
The heat index for June is computed to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. 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.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
Humidity
In June, the average relative humidity is 85%.

UV index
The months with the highest UV index in Panjim,
India, are
March through
September, with an average maximum UV index of 12. A UV Index reading of 11, and higher, represents an ultimate health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.
Note: In June, the maximum UV index of 12 suggests these recommendations:
Undertake every vital safety procedure, as unprotected skin and eyes could sustain burns in no time. 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. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat. Despite the clouds, sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 should be used liberally and reapplied frequently, especially after a swim or outdoor workout. Warning! The Sun's UV rays intensify with reflections from sand and water.
