Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 80%.

Follow precautions and abide by sun safety rules. Deterrence of sunburn is imperative. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
