Weather in May

The last month of the autumn, May, is another warm month in Bumbwini, Tanzania, with an average temperature fluctuating between 28.2°C (82.8°F) and 25.3°C (77.5°F).

Temperature

May's average high-temperature stands at a still moderately hot 28.2°C (82.8°F), showing little deviation from April's 29.1°C (84.4°F). Bumbwini records a consistent average nighttime temperature of 25.3°C (77.5°F) in May, slightly lower than the daytime high.

Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). If one continues to be active during exposure, it might cause tiredness and subsequent heat cramps.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
