June weather forecast
Mauritania

June in Mauritania signals the full onset of summer, characterized by soaring temperatures that dominate the country's landscape. As the heat intensifies, the arid conditions Mauritania is known for become more pronounced.

In the capital city Nouakchott, average temperatures for June range between 22°C (71.6°F) and 37°C (98.6°F). Its proximity to the Atlantic Ocean provides some respite from the intense heat, yet conditions remain quite hot. The desert city of Atar, on the other hand, faces more extreme temperatures, with highs frequently exceeding 43°C (109.4°F), and nighttime lows around 24°C (75.2°F).

Despite the escalating heat, June mostly maintains the prevailing aridity seen in the previous months. Rainfall is a rarity in most regions, including the northern desert and the Sahelian zone in the south. However, the end of June may witness the initial showers of the rainy season, predominantly in the southern parts of the country.

When compared to May, June is significantly hotter, with temperatures reaching extreme highs. As the country proceeds into July, this heat will persist, and the rainy season in the south will begin in earnest. The severe heat of June makes it a challenging month for travel, particularly in the inland and northern desert regions. Proper precautions to protect against heat and sun exposure are necessary during this period.
