May weather forecast
Gagasari, Indonesia

May, the last month of the autumn in Gagasari, is another tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between min 24.4°C (75.9°F) and max 30.1°C (86.2°F).

Temperature

With May's advent, Gagasari sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.1°C (86.2°F), subtly shifted from April's 30°C (86°F). Throughout the month of May, the nighttime temperature dips to an average of 24.4°C (75.9°F).

Heat index

During May, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 37°C (98.6°F). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 77%.

Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in May leads to these recommendations:
Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. 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.
