June, the first month of the summer in Sandama, is also a sweltering month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 26.7°C (80.1°F) and 38.3°C (100.9°F).

Temperature

June's average high-temperature stands at a fiery hot 38.3°C (100.9°F), showing little deviation from May's 40.3°C (104.5°F). Sandama in June experiences a low-temperature average of 26.7°C (80.1°F).

Heat index

In June, the average heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 47°C (116.6°F). Heed: Expect heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continued action may cause heatstroke.
Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 45%.

Rainfall

In June, the rain falls for 8.8 days. Throughout June, 29mm (1.14") of precipitation is accumulated. In Sandama, during the entire year, the rain falls for 79.9 days and collects up to 400mm (15.75") of precipitation.

UV index

In June, the average daily maximum UV index in Sandama is 8. A UV Index value of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: An average maximum UV index of 8 in June leads to these recommendations:
Always be careful, as unprotected skin and eyes might burn in no time. 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. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
