Weather in May
Temperature
May brings a slight increase in the average high-temperature, progressing from a warm 27.8°C (82°F) in April to a hot 31.6°C (88.9°F). May registers an average low temperature of 29.5°C (85.1°F) in Kumzar, subtly lower than the daytime maximum.Heat index
The heat index for May is evaluated at a sweltering 36°C (96.8°F). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. 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 primarily vital for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Being careless can result in skin and eye damage. Always take the necessary safety measures. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Enhance your sun protection with tightly woven, yet airy clothing.
