June weather forecast
Lesotho

June signals the arrival of winter in Lesotho, bringing with it the coldest temperatures of the year. The average temperatures during this month fall drastically, typically ranging between -5°C (23°F) and 10°C (50°F). The lower regions, such as Maseru, experience milder conditions, while higher altitudes, including Thaba-Tseka, brace for significantly cooler weather, often dipping below freezing point.

June is among the driest months in Lesotho, with precipitation levels dropping to 20mm (0.79"). Rainfall becomes even rarer compared to May, and snow begins to appear, particularly in the highlands. This is a sharp contrast to the preceding months and marks the full transition into the winter season.

The landscapes of Lesotho in June are strikingly different from the verdant scenes of summer or the warm tones of autumn. The country takes on a bare, almost desolate look, interspersed with snow-covered peaks in the highlands. Despite the chill and low sun intensity, sun protection is still advisable due to Lesotho's high altitude and the reflection of UV rays off the snow. Although the temperatures can be challenging, June offers opportunities for snow-based activities and is ideal for those who enjoy the stark beauty of winter landscapes.
