May weather forecast
Dif, Kenya

Temperature

With the advent of May, Dif experiences an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.9°C (91.2°F), mirroring a close resemblance to the previous month. Dif sees an average low-temperature of 24°C (75.2°F) during May.

Heat index

The heat index value during May is evaluated at a blistering 40°C (104°F). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Kids frequently ignore the importance of taking a break and rehydrating. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during long-lasting physical activities.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Note: The UV index of 7 during May leads to these advisories:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Combat UV radiation's detrimental effects with sun-safe clothing and UV-blocking eyewear.
