Weather in May

May, the last month of the autumn in Kertapati, is another hot month, with an average temperature varying between 32.5°C (90.5°F) and 24.2°C (75.6°F).

Temperature

With the onset of May, the average high-temperature stands at a still tropical 32.5°C (90.5°F), closely aligned with April's 32.1°C (89.8°F). During the nights in May, the temperature averages to a warm 24.2°C (75.6°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in May is estimated at a life-threatening hot 48°C (118.4°F). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat.
