Welcoming May, Betty's Hope notes an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.3°C (81.1°F), nearly consistent with April's 26.3°C (79.3°F). A steady low-temperature average of 26.4°C (79.5°F) is logged in Betty's Hope during May, reflecting a modest dip from daytime readings.Heat index
The heat index for May is calculated to be a tropical 30°C (86°F). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. Facing direct sunlight may hike up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. 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 extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
