Weather in May
Temperature
Sohoa transitions into May recording an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.3°C (82.9°F), closely aligning with the preceding month's temperature. Sohoa notes a consistent average low-temperature of 27.1°C (80.8°F) during May nights.Heat index
During May, the heat index is appraised at a hot 32°C (89.6°F). Persistent activity under exposure might lead to a feeling of weariness, with subsequent heat cramps.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. 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 critical to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
