Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another very hot month in Pinkha, Myanmar, with an average temperature ranging between min 23.1°C (73.6°F) and max 35.7°C (96.3°F).

Temperature

May's onset records an average high-temperature of a still fiery hot 35.7°C (96.3°F), a near match to April's 37°C (98.6°F). Pinkha in May observes a sharp transition from the daytime heat, falling to an average low of 23.1°C (73.6°F).

Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is estimated at a burning hot 49°C (120.2°F). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Prolonged effort can result in heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' 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 impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 64%.

Rainfall

In May, the rain falls for 19.9 days. Throughout May, 106mm (4.17") of precipitation is accumulated. Throughout the year, there are 182.7 rainfall days, and 1144mm (45.04") of precipitation is accumulated.

UV index

March through May, August and September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: The average daily UV index of 7 in May transforms into the following instructions:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Stay out of direct sunlight and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest, but remember that shade devices may not offer full sun protection. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
