Weather in May
Temperature
The advent of May observes an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.8°C (85.6°F), nearly identical to April's 29.6°C (85.3°F). Nighttime temperature sees a small decrement from daytime highs, dipping to an average of 26.2°C (79.2°F) during May.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
