May weather forecastDaet, Philippines

Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Daet, is a tropical month, with an average temperature varying between 31.1°C (88°F) and 25.8°C (78.4°F).

Temperature

May and June bring Daet's highest average temperatures, reaching a high of 31.1°C (88°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during May is calculated to be an extremely hot 41°C (105.8°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Humidity

The months with the lowest humidity are April through June and August, with an average relative humidity of 80%.

Sunshine

With an average of 10.8h of sunshine, May has the most sunshine of the year.

UV index

March through November, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Daet. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.
Note: A maximum UV index of 7 in May translates into the following recommendations:
Elude overexposure. Fair-skinned people could get burnt in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest. Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects.
