Weather in May
Temperature
As Chepigana welcomes May, the average high-temperature stabilizes at a still moderately hot 29°C (84.2°F), showing little deviation from April's 28.4°C (83.1°F). May notes an average low temperature of 25.3°C (77.5°F), subtly down from the daytime highs.Heat index
In May, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to 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.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
Humidity
April through September, November and December, with an average relative humidity of 84%, are the most humid months.Rainfall

April through September, November and December, 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 exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: In May, a daily maximum UV index of 7 leads to the following instructions:
Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Stay sun-safe with clothing that is both closely woven and worn loosely.
