Weather in May
Temperature
A slight uplift in the average high-temperature marks May, adjusting from April's moderately hot 24.5°C (76.1°F) to a still warm 27.7°C (81.9°F). In Cha Kwo Ling, May is characterized by an average low-temperature of 24.9°C (76.8°F), indicating a minor drop from daytime highs.Heat index
The heat index value during May is computed to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Extended exposure and activity might lead to tiredness, potentially resulting in heat cramps.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
