May weather forecast
Nigui Assoko, Ivory Coast

The last month of the spring, May, is another tropical month in Nigui Assoko, Ivory Coast, with an average temperature varying between 25.3°C (77.5°F) and 30.4°C (86.7°F).

Temperature

The transition into May is marked with an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.4°C (86.7°F), showing an insignificant shift from April's 31.2°C (88.2°F). The nighttime temperature, during May, averages of 25.3°C (77.5°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in May is estimated at a sweltering 39°C (102.2°F). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.
Heat index data is primarily for areas with shade and subjected to light winds. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity is 81%.

Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
