May weather forecast
Karad, India

May, the last month of the pre-monsoon summer in Karad, is also a fiery hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 37°C (98.6°F) and an average low of 23.5°C (74.3°F).

Temperature

The advent of May brings an average high-temperature of a still fiery hot 37°C (98.6°F), almost identical to the preceding month. May presents a pronounced divergence from daily peak temperatures, with the average low-temperature of 23.5°C (74.3°F).

Heat index

For May, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. 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 'real feel', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index in Karad are February through May, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in May suggests the following recommendations:
Elude overexposure. Fair-skinned people could get burnt in less than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
