Weather in May
Temperature
The start of May brings a subtle rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 29.3°C (84.7°F) in April to a tropical 33.6°C (92.5°F). Hifna, in May, experiences a marked contrast from daytime zeniths to a steady average low-temperature of 17.8°C (64°F).Heat index
The heat index value during May is estimated at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
