Weather in May
Temperature
A gentle upsurge in temperatures occurs as April gives way to May, with average highs shifting from a moderately hot 29.4°C (84.9°F) to a hot 33.7°C (92.7°F). Marked by a significant drop from the daytime highs, Al Baqqashin's average low-temperature in May stands at a comfortable 17.3°C (63.1°F).Heat index
The heat index in May is appraised at a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
