June weather forecast
Gasmata, Papua New Guinea

The first month of the winter, June, is still a warm month in Gasmata, Papua New Guinea, with an average temperature fluctuating between 23.6°C (74.5°F) and 29.6°C (85.3°F).

Temperature

The commencement of June brings an average high-temperature of a moderately hot 29.6°C (85.3°F), marking an inconsequential divergence from May. Throughout the nights in June, an average low-temperature of 23.6°C (74.5°F) is noted.

Heat index

June's mean heat index is estimated at a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Humidity

In Gasmata, the average relative humidity in June is 83%.

Rainfall

In June, the rain falls for 27.7 days. Throughout June, 155mm (6.1") of precipitation is accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 332.4 rainfall days, and 2467mm (97.13") of precipitation is accumulated.

UV index

April through June, August through November, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Gasmata. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during June translates into the following directions:
Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
