As the year reaches its midpoint in
June,
Hat Yai experiences weather patterns that closely adhere to those witnessed in
May. The heat persists, but its severity is subdued due to a minimal dip in the daytime temperature. A reduction in rain from the May highs breathes ease into daily routines, with decreased disruptions due to weather conditions. The phenomenon of the optical mirage continues, bringing a surreal charm to this coastal town. Even though the rainfall is less than in May, June still records a rainfall of 119mm (4.69"), keeping the moisture levels high.

Hat Yai registers an average high-temperature of a still tropical 33.5°C (92.3°F) at the commencement of June, closely related to the preceding month. During the nights in June, Hat Yai observes an average low-temperature of 23.8°C (74.8°F).
Heat index
In June, the heat index is evaluated at a burning hot 50°C (122°F).
Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Take every vital safeguard, as unprotected skin and eyes may suffer burns rapidly. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes. Regularly apply and reapply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a minimum SPF 30 every two hours, or straight after swimming or an outdoor activity.
