Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Dinghu, is a tropical month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 30.2°C (86.4°F) and an average low of 22.9°C (73.2°F).

Temperature

The beginning of May marks a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from April's warm 27.1°C (80.8°F) to a tropical 30.2°C (86.4°F). In May, the average low-temperature is a pleasant 22.9°C (73.2°F).

Heat index

In May, the average heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). More preventive actions are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is significant. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity is 84%.

Act on precautions and pay attention to sun safety recommendations. Avoidance of sunburn is obligatory. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Always opt for UVA and UVB-resistant sunglasses on radiant days.
