Kalidaha, Bangladesh

May, the last month of the spring in Kalidaha, is another tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 33.7°C (92.7°F) and an average low of 26.2°C (79.2°F).

Temperature

The shift into May uncovers an average high-temperature of a still hot 33.7°C (92.7°F), subtly different from the previous month. An average low-temperature of 26.2°C (79.2°F) is noted during the month of May.

Heat index

May's mean heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 48°C (118.4°F). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical 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.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity is 75%.

Note: The maximum daily UV index of 7 during May translates into the following directions:
Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but keep in mind that not all shade structures provide complete protection. In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation.
