Weather in May
Temperature
May's weather records an average high-temperature of a still hot 34.5°C (94.1°F), showing little deviation from April. Gojkhali's nights in May cool down to an average low-temperature of 27.9°C (82.2°F).Heat index
During May, the heat index is evaluated at a blazing hot 49°C (120.2°F). Be wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are highly anticipated. With continued activity, heatstroke is very likely.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Sunshine

The average daily maximum UV index in May is 7. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: During May, 7 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. The Sun's UV radiation is most powerful between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. To the extent possible, limit exposure to the direct sun during these hours. Sunglasses providing both UVA and UVB protection are non-negotiable on sunlit days.
