Weather in May
Temperature
Tufi's weather, upon May's arrival, documents an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.3°C (84.7°F), nearly the same as the prior month. Tufi records an average nighttime low of 21.8°C (71.2°F) in May.Heat index
During May, the heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
