Weather in May
Temperature
Kalapara sees the arrival of May with an average high-temperature of a still hot 34.5°C (94.1°F), indicating a subtle variation from April. During May, the temperature in Kalapara, Bangladesh, is averaged to a low of 27.9°C (82.2°F) at night.Heat index
The heat index value during May is appraised at a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
