May weather forecast
Sundarganj, Bangladesh

Temperature

May experiences an average high-temperature of a hot 34.7°C (94.5°F), barely different from April's 35.7°C (96.3°F). The average low-temperature, in May, is a moderately hot 24.8°C (76.6°F).

Heat index

May's mean heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 49°C (120.2°F). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

Note: An average UV index of 7 in May transforms into this advice:
Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades.
