May weather forecast
Bana Abu Sir, Egypt

The last month of the spring, May, is a tropical month in Bana Abu Sir, Egypt, with an average temperature ranging between min 16°C (60.8°F) and max 32.8°C (91°F).

Temperature

The shift into May is characterized by a subtle rise in the average high-temperature, transitioning from April's moderately hot 28.8°C (83.8°F) to a tropical 32.8°C (91°F). Bana Abu Sir, after hot May days, encounters a marked drop to an average nighttime temperature of 16°C (60.8°F).

Heat index

May's heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. 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.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and high humidity (high heat index) conditions, the body's ability to perspire is compromised, increasing the sensation of heat. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
