Weather in May

Ban Bong's peak temperatures tend to occur in April and May, with an average high-temperature of 29.3°C (84.7°F).Heat index
The average heat index in May is evaluated at a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
