Following a wet
May,
June continues the trend of ample rainfall but at a slightly tempered pace. Lessened rain is accompanied by a decline in temperature, providing small relief from the otherwise heavily precipitated region. As June unfolds, there is a tiny but notable dip in humidity, attributing to a decrease in the day's perceived warmth. In terms of sheer numbers, a dip in rainfall to 184mm (7.24"), observed against a backdrop of temperatures from 24.1°C (75.4°F) to 32°C (89.6°F), characterizes the weather this month.
Temperature
Satun's shift from May to June is accompanied by an average high-temperature of a still hot 32.4°C (90.3°F), a slight deviation from 33°C (91.4°F). Throughout June, Satun registers a consistent average low-temperature of 24.1°C (75.4°F).
Heat index
The heat index for June is estimated at a burning hot 47°C (116.6°F).
Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
