Temperature

As April turns into May, the average high-temperatures rest at a still torrid 36.9°C (98.4°F), showing a minor variation from the prior month. Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 27.1°C (80.8°F) in May.

Heat index

May's mean heat index is calculated to be a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Keep on guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a possible danger with ongoing physical activity.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
