May weather forecastDaloa, Ivory Coast

Weather in May

May witnesses a pronounced variation in weather conditions. The city's highest level of humidity is recorded at 80%, a considerable spike from April. Temperature ranges resemble that of April, indicating consistency. Intriguingly, despite the pervasive precipitation, daylight hours augment slightly. However, the quantity of cloud cover significantly increases, hampering visibility.

Temperature

The average high-temperature during May is a hot 33.7°C (92.7°F), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. Daloa's average low-temperature during May nights is observed to be a pleasant 22.3°C (72.1°F).

Heat index

The heat index in May is appraised at a burning hot 51°C (123.8°F). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.
For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.

Evade overexposure. Individuals with fair skin risk burning in under 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
