Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Taas, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature varying between 24.8°C (76.6°F) and 29.9°C (85.8°F).

Temperature

The arrival of May sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.9°C (85.8°F), hardly diverging from April's 29°C (84.2°F). Taas observes an average nighttime low-temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F) during the month of May.

Heat index

The heat index value for May is evaluated at a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Heightened safety actions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may lead to heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity is 81%.

Rainfall

In May, the rain falls for 28.3 days. Throughout May, 142mm (5.59") of precipitation is accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 292.1 rainfall days, and 1415mm (55.71") of precipitation is accumulated.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: An average UV index of 7 in May transforms into this advice:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
