June weather forecast
Taif, Senegal

The first month of the summer, June, is also a fiery hot month in Taif, Senegal, with temperature in the range of an average high of 39.5°C (103.1°F) and an average low of 23.5°C (74.3°F).

Temperature

June notes an average high-temperature of a torrid 39.5°C (103.1°F), subtly differing from May's 41.4°C (106.5°F). Against the backdrop of high daytime temperatures, an average low-temperature of 23.5°C (74.3°F) is noted during June nights.

Heat index

For June, the heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 53°C (127.4°F). Mindful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are to be expected. Extended physical effort might result in heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.

Humidity

In June, the average relative humidity is 50%.

Rainfall

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are April through June, September and October, with an average maximum UV index of 8. A UV Index estimate of 8 to 10 represents a very high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.
Note: In June, the maximum UV index of 8 translates into these guidelines:
Remember to safeguard yourself. Rapid damage can occur to skin and eyes without protection. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
