May, the last month of the spring in Bukit Tambun, is another hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 32.5°C (90.5°F) and an average low of 24.8°C (76.6°F).

Temperature

Bukit Tambun records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.5°C (90.5°F) as May arrives, nearly mirroring the previous month's climate. May brings Bukit Tambun a consistent average low-temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F).

Heat index

The heat index in May is calculated to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
