Weather in May

The commencement of May brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 28.5°C (83.3°F), marking an inconsequential divergence from April. Nighttime temperatures exhibit a substantial dip from daytime highs during May, averaging at a refreshing 14°C (57.2°F).Heat index
May's mean heat index is estimated at 29°C (84.2°F). Prolonged activity during exposure might result in a state of fatigue and cause heat cramps.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
