May weather forecast
Elenga, Bangladesh

May, the last month of the spring in Elenga, is another torrid month, with an average temperature ranging between min 26.8°C (80.2°F) and max 35.8°C (96.4°F).

Temperature

The transition from April to May brings an average high-temperature of a still very hot 35.8°C (96.4°F), barely different from April's 36.6°C (97.9°F). Elenga reports an average nighttime low-temperature of 26.8°C (80.2°F) in May.

Heat index

The heat index value during May is evaluated at a blazing hot 52°C (125.6°F). Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Take the necessary steps to protect yourself; unprotected skin and eyes are vulnerable to damage. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
