Temperature

The initiation of June sees an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.7°C (87.3°F), showing minor variations from the previous month. Throughout the June nights, Okene encounters a low-temperature of 21.8°C (71.2°F).

Heat index

During June, the heat index is appraised at a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Humidity

In Okene, the average relative humidity in June is 84%.

Act on precautions and pay attention to sun safety recommendations. Avoidance of sunburn is obligatory. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
