Fika, Nigeria

June, the first month of the summer in Fika, is still a very hot month, with temperature in the range of an average low of 27.8°C (82°F) and an average high of 37.6°C (99.7°F).

Temperature

The transition from May to June brings an average high-temperature of a very hot 37.6°C (99.7°F), barely different from May's 40°C (104°F). Fika's nights in June experience an average temperature drop to a warm 27.8°C (82°F).

Heat index

June's mean heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 44°C (111.2°F). Take note: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke can occur with prolonged effort.
Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 43%.

Rainfall

In June, the rain falls for 8.9 days. Throughout June, 27mm (1.06") of precipitation is accumulated. In Fika, during the entire year, the rain falls for 72.6 days and collects up to 286mm (11.26") of precipitation.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are February through June, with an average maximum UV index of 8. A UV Index reading of 8 to 10 represents a very high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for average individuals.
Note: The daily high UV index of 8 in June translates into this advice:
Immediate damage can occur to skin and eyes if left unprotected. Always take necessary precautions. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
