Condega's May showcases an average high-temperature of a warm 29.3°C (84.7°F), hardly distinct from April's 31.4°C (88.5°F). An average low-temperature of 20.3°C (68.5°F) marks the month of May.

Heat index

In May, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 35°C (95°F). Adopt extra safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

Put precautions into practice - Ensuring skin and eye safety is a necessity. The intensity of the Sun's UV radiation during midday suggests reducing time spent outdoors. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
