This is called an alliteration.

An example of alliteration would be V's famous speech in V for Vendetta where he uses the letter V at the beginning of each word in an entire speech.

ALLITERATION

Another technique poets use is alliteration, the repetition of initial consonant sounds. When Edgar Allan Poe wrote, "not a feather then he fluttered, Till I scarcely more than muttered—Other friends have flown before," he deliberately repeated beginning consonant sounds (the f in feather, fluttered, flown) with the intended effect of driving the lines forcefully into the reader's mind. Alliteration need not create this harsh effect. John Keats, in "Ode to a Nightingale," used alliteration of the same letter, f, to create the opposite effect: "Fade far away, dissolve, and quite forget."

The weather forecast for the day, or rather what we can assume the predicted forecast is due to the preparations the family are making, will likely be a hot and sunny day, with a lot of humidity. We can establish this due to the fact that sunscreen is being packed, combined with the fact that Becca will need her inhaler.
