Weather in May

May's onset records an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.9°C (82.2°F), a near match to April's 29.5°C (85.1°F). In May, the nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 18.6°C (65.5°F).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Exhaustion becomes probable with enduring exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
