Weather in May
Temperature
Upon the beginning of May, Tiavene's high-temperatures register at a still torrid 37.1°C (98.8°F), closely mirroring the preceding month. Despite the intense daytime heat, Tiavene sustains a steady low-temperature average of 21.3°C (70.3°F) during May.Heat index
May's mean heat index is evaluated at a life-threatening hot 45°C (113°F). Warning: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke is a risk with ongoing activity.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

The average daily maximum UV index in May is 7. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The daily maximum UV index of 7 in May interprets into the following advice:
Guard oneself from overexposure. Defence against sun injury is vital. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
