June weather forecast
Samarinda, Indonesia

With the advent of June, the weather in Samarinda remains unwaveringly consistent. The month's temperature brooks a narrow range from 23.8°C (74.8°F) to 31.2°C (88.2°F), very slightly cooler than May. Despite this minor variation, the dominant climate traits remain intact. The continued high humidity coupled with substantial rainfall forges a typically wet atmosphere. In line with this, wind speed, daylight duration, and other parameters fit into the familiar tropical mould of the region.

Heat index

June's average heat index is estimated at a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.
Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
