Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Beme, is also a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 24°C (75.2°F) and max 33.5°C (92.3°F).

Temperature

As Beme steps into May, the average high-temperature is measured at a hot 33.5°C (92.3°F), displaying minor differences from April's 35°C (95°F). In May, Beme records an average nighttime temperature of 24°C (75.2°F).

Heat index

May's mean heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 48°C (118.4°F). Take caution: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may be imminent with ongoing effort.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values 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. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

In Beme, the average relative humidity in May is 76%.

Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Boost your sun resistance with garments that are densely woven yet spacious.
