Weather in May

May brings about a change in Kyaikto, Myanmar's weather narrative. The addition of rain showers and higher humidity levels results in a noticeable drop in the month's heat magnitude. The sky's prevailing blue gradually yields to grey, marked by the highest average rainfall for the year at 124mm (4.88"). The protracted daylight hours still provide ample opportunities for sightseeing around the city, albeit in slightly dampened conditions.

Temperature

As April turns into May in Kyaikto, the average high-temperatures rest at a still fiery hot 35.6°C (96.1°F), showing a minor variation from the prior month. During the May nights, an average temperature of 27.7°C (81.9°F) is observed.

Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is estimated at a blazing hot 50°C (122°F). Caution: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are expected. Sustained activity could lead to heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
