Although wind speeds soften slightly, they provide a gentle cooling effect against the backdrop of heightened temperatures and increased cloud cover. June stands as a peak month for rainfall but doesn't compromise sunshine or daylight hours, striking a distinct balance.

Temperature

June's beginning in Maraval signals an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.2°C (84.6°F), barely different from May's 29.4°C (84.9°F). June nights anticipate an average temperature of 26°C (78.8°F), a modest decline from the daytime.

Heat index

The heat index in June is evaluated at a very hot 35°C (95°F). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. 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.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Elude overexposure. Fair-skinned people could get burnt in less than 20 minutes. Limit your exposure to the sun's UV radiation, which is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and note that parasols or canopies may not provide full sun protection. Opt for tightly woven and loose clothing to enhance protection from the Sun.
