Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May signals a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from 30.6°C (87.1°F) in April to a still hot 34°C (93.2°F). Throughout May, the temperature falls to an average low of 28.3°C (82.9°F).Heat index
The heat index value during May is estimated at a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
