May weather forecast
Diveagar, India

The last month of the pre-monsoon summer, May, is another tropical month in Diveagar, India, with an average temperature fluctuating between 31.8°C (89.2°F) and 26.8°C (80.2°F).

Temperature

The beginning of May records an average high-temperature of a still hot 31.8°C (89.2°F), almost echoing the conditions of the previous month. Throughout May, Diveagar records a steady low-temperature average of 26.8°C (80.2°F), a minor decrease from its daytime counterpart.

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.

Humidity

In Diveagar, the average relative humidity in May is 74%.

Note: A daily maximum UV index of 7 in May translates into the following instructions:
Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized.
