Weather in May
Temperature
May is the warmest month, exhibiting average temperatures of 30.4°C (86.7°F) at the peak and 19.6°C (67.3°F) at the base.Heat index
The heat index in May is appraised at a torrid 35°C (95°F). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Continuous activity could provoke heatstroke.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children commonly overlook the importance of rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst, being a delayed sign of dehydration, emphasizes the need to keep hydration up, especially during lengthy physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
