Weather in May
Temperature
May, on average, is the warmest month, registering a high temperature of 31.7°C (89.1°F) and a low of 26.6°C (79.9°F).Heat index
For May, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Take extra safety measures to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Heatstroke could follow lengthy activity.Records show heat index calculations are tailored for shaded regions and mild winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. 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 particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
The physiological way the human body responds to excessive heat is by inducing perspiration, using sweat evaporation as a cooling mechanism. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.
