May weather forecast
Sapleja, Bangladesh

May, the last month of the spring in Sapleja, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 27.9°C (82.2°F) and 34.5°C (94.1°F).

Temperature

The transition into May is marked with an average high-temperature of a still hot 34.5°C (94.1°F), showing an insignificant shift from April's 34.7°C (94.5°F). Sapleja witnesses an average low-temperature of 27.9°C (82.2°F) throughout the month of May.

Heat index

The heat index value during May is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F). Watchful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are predicted. Continued exertion could lead to heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 71%.

Rainfall

In May, the rain falls for 9.6 days. Throughout May, 22mm (0.87") of precipitation is accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 140.4 rainfall days, and 489mm (19.25") of precipitation is accumulated.

UV index

In May, the average daily maximum UV index in Sapleja is 7. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.
Note: In May, the maximum UV index of 7 suggests these recommendations:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Stay out of direct sunlight and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest, but remember that shade devices may not offer full sun protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
