June weather forecast
Arlington, TX

Entrenched in summer, June accentuates the warm temperatures, making it a season of outdoor activities and barbecues. The landscape of Arlington becomes a spectacle to experience in June as the city basks in the highest sunshine hours of the year. A relative drop in humidity from May to 67% offers a slightly dry but comfortable season. UV Index in June peaks at 7, hence skin protection becomes crucial this month. The wind speed drops a bit to 8.1mph (13km/h), offering a soothing relief to the inflating heat of the day.

Temperature

The shift from May to June introduces a subtle increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 82.2°F (27.9°C) to a tropical 90.9°F (32.7°C). During June, Arlington consistently records a temperature low averaging a warm 73.6°F (23.1°C).

Heat index

June's heat index is computed to be a blistering 105.8°F (41°C). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest, limit direct exposure to the Sun and note that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
