Weather in May
Temperature
May observes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.6°C (87.1°F), marking an insignificant difference from April's 31.4°C (88.5°F). Garasraadi reports an average low-temperature of 26.4°C (79.5°F) during the subtly cooler May nights.Heat index
May's mean heat index is estimated at a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
Humidity
May, June, August and October, with an average relative humidity of 76%, are the most humid months.Rainfall
The wettest months are April and May, with an average 49mm (1.93") of rainfall.Daylight
In May, the average length of the day is 12h and 11min.On the first day of the month, sunrise is at 05:53 and sunset at 18:04. On the last day of May, sunrise is at 05:53 and sunset at 18:05 EAT.
Sunshine
The average sunshine in May is 10.4h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for average individuals.Note: In May, a regular UV index of 7 translates into these guidelines:
Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Try to minimize direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Also note that objects like parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
