May weather forecast
Moli, South Sudan

May, the last month of the spring in Moli, is another tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between max 30.1°C (86.2°F) and min 20.2°C (68.4°F).

Temperature

The arrival of May brings an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.1°C (86.2°F), nearly identical to April's 32°C (89.6°F). The average low-temperature of 20.2°C (68.4°F) is witnessed in Moli during May.

Heat index

In May, the average heat index is computed to be a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Take more preventive steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is elevated. Long activity may culminate in heatstroke.
It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. 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 quite important for 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 process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 77%.

Rainfall

In May, the rain falls for 25.9 days. Throughout May, 158mm (6.22") of precipitation is accumulated. In Moli, during the entire year, the rain falls for 229.5 days and collects up to 1113mm (43.82") of precipitation.

Sunshine

In May, the average sunshine is 8.8h.

UV index

April through October, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.
Note: During May, 6 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
