Temperature

In Wamrong, May is identified by the highest average temperatures, reaching a peak of 33.8°C (92.8°F) and a low of 22.5°C (72.5°F).

Heat index

During May, the heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 46°C (114.8°F). Keep wary: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a possible outcome of ongoing activity.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. 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 physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. When there is an excess of moisture in the atmosphere, the efficiency of the evaporation process is lessened, leading to less efficient body cooling and a sensation of overheating. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity is 70%.

Rainfall

In May, the rain falls for 25.8 days. Throughout May, 164mm (6.46") of precipitation is accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 197.8 rainfall days, and 1663mm (65.47") of precipitation is accumulated.

UV index

In Wamrong, the average daily maximum UV index in May is 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for ordinary individuals.
Note: The maximum UV index of 6 during May translates into these guidelines:
Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
