May weather forecast
Lalara, Gabon

Creeping into the middle of the year, May's weather in Lalara conforms to the habitual climate play, marking another spike in rainfall gauges. This time, it tops at 164mm (6.46"), drawing a noticeable contrast with the gentle wind movements and the consistently warm temperature tangents. The near-constant 12.1h daylight hours serve as a canvas for the city's enhanced humidity and cosseted warmth, while the measure of sunshine hours dips lower to just below 7h. This equilibrium mirrors the steady atmospheric pressure, ensuring that Lalara remains an enduring portfolio of natural elements throughout May.

Temperature

Lalara's May showcases an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.3°C (86.5°F), hardly distinct from April's 30.8°C (87.4°F). An average low-temperature of 21.4°C (70.5°F) is common during the nights of May.

Heat index

During May, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Using UVA and UVB-protective sunglasses and sun-protective clothing is effective against UV radiation.
