May weather forecast
Ollur, India

The last month of the pre-monsoon summer, May, is also a hot month in Ollur, India, with an average temperature varying between 25.8°C (78.4°F) and 31.9°C (89.4°F).

Temperature

May observes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.9°C (89.4°F), marking an insignificant difference from April's 33.8°C (92.8°F). Throughout the month of May, the average temperature dips to a warm 25.8°C (78.4°F) at night.

Heat index

The average heat index in May is computed to be an extremely hot 44°C (111.2°F). Be wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are highly anticipated. With continued activity, heatstroke is very likely.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to 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.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

In Ollur, India, the average relative humidity in May is 80%.

UV index

May through October, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.
Note: In May, the maximum UV index of 6 suggests this advice:
Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
