Temperature

June's onset records a minor alteration in the average high-temperature to a still tropical 30.2°C (86.4°F) from May's 30°C (86°F). An average nighttime temperature of 23.5°C (74.3°F) is observed in Paya during June.

Heat index

Throughout June, the heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 40°C (104°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. 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. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 86%.

Note: The daily high UV index of 6 in June translates into this advice:
Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. Remember that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. Outfit yourself in sun-safe attire, like long sleeves, pants, a hat, and UV-blocking sunglasses.
