Temperature

Transitioning into June, Hapugala records an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.8°C (83.8°F), almost identical to May's 29.5°C (85.1°F). Hapugala, during June nights, witnesses an average temperature marginally cooler than its daytime highs, at a still moderately hot 26.6°C (79.9°F).

Heat index

Throughout June, the heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Note: The maximum daily UV index of 7 in June interprets into the following recommendations:
Act on precautions and pay attention to sun safety recommendations. Avoidance of sunburn is obligatory. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. Prioritize a wide-brim hat for comprehensive sun defense for your face, neck, eyes, and ears.
