Temperature

In the transition from April to May, Kisisi reports an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.5°C (86.9°F), indicating a close resemblance to the prior month. Throughout May, a steady low-temperature average of 22°C (71.6°F) is noted.

Heat index

The average heat index in May is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. 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 extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity in Kisisi is 85%.

UV index

Note: The maximum daily UV index, 6 in May, converts into the following recommendations:
Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
