Weather in Riyadh in June
June in Riyadh is the hard heat. Outdoor plans belong to the ends of the day. The middle is for indoors or water.
In Saudi Arabia, this is how Riyadh actually wears June, not how a country centroid would. Compared with July and January, June sits in the middle of Riyadh's year.

Daytime
Fierce heat in Riyadh in June. Start early. Hide in the middle. Come out again when the sun drops.
This is not a month for a packed walking itinerary. Water, shade, and a schedule that admits the climate is in charge.
Rain
Rain is not the story in Riyadh in June. Pack for sun. A shower would be news, not a plan.
Do not build the trip around weather windows. Build it around shade if it is hot, and around getting outside if it is not.
