Zuru, Nigeria

Temperature

The onset of June brings an average high-temperature of a still very hot 35.6°C (96.1°F), nearly matching the May temperature. Zuru witnesses an average low-temperature of 25.9°C (78.6°F) throughout the month of June.

Heat index

In June, the average heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F). Warning: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke is a risk with ongoing activity.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 58%.

Rainfall

UV index

January, June through September, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: The maximum UV index, 7 during June, leads to the following recommendations:
Conform to measures and uphold sun safety traditions. Warding off skin and eye harm is necessary. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
