Tzambisisi, Congo

May, the last month of the autumn in Tzambisisi, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between max 30.5°C (86.9°F) and min 22°C (71.6°F).

Temperature

The onset of May brings with it an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.5°C (86.9°F), showing a negligible variation from the month before. Tzambisisi sees an average low-temperature of 22°C (71.6°F) during May.

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is evaluated at a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. 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. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 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. Counter UV radiation's ill effects with clothing designed for sun safety and UV-resistant eyewear.
