June remains warm through the day and night in this coastal model cell. Its very small day-to-night range is a regional estimate influenced by the surrounding sea, so it should not be treated as a precise start-line temperature. Average daily highs are 28.7°C and overnight lows 27.6°C. The month’s average precipitation total is substantial at about 281 mm, so pack for wet conditions; this total does not show when rain falls or the chance of rain during the race. These are historical regional averages, not a forecast or race-hour temperatures; the coast, hills and start line may differ.
