Weather in May
Temperature
The start of May brings a subtle shift in the average high-temperature, edging up from April's warm 25°C (77°F) to a still moderately hot 28.4°C (83.1°F). Throughout May, a modest shift from daytime highs is anticipated, with an average low-temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F).Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 34°C (93.2°F). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
