June weather forecast
Loul Sessène, Senegal

June in Loul Sessène, Senegal heralds an intensification of the wet season's attributes. The month builds on May's weather variables, including a significant surge in rainfall, breaching the 9mm (0.35") mark. Consequently, relative humidity escalates to a high of 67%, underlining the progression of the wet season. A comparative dip in temperature from May to June also comprises a part of the month’s character. As June blends into July, Senegal gears up for the peak of the wet season.

Temperature

The transition from May to June sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still tropical 31.8°C (89.2°F), from a not significantly different 33.1°C (91.6°F). Loul Sessène observes an average low-temperature of 23.6°C (74.5°F) during June.

Heat index

June's average heat index is computed to be a very hot 39°C (102.2°F). Ensure heightened precautions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Sustained activity could provoke heatstroke.
The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
