May weather forecast
Angaba, Uganda

The last month of the spring, May, is also a moderately hot month in Angaba, Uganda, with an average temperature ranging between min 19.9°C (67.8°F) and max 29.9°C (85.8°F).

Temperature

As May takes hold, the average high-temperature is a warm 29.9°C (85.8°F), nearly mirroring that of the previous month. Angaba in May experiences a low-temperature average of 19.9°C (67.8°F).

Heat index

The heat index in May is computed to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.

To mitigate harm from sun exposure, pick sunglasses offering UVA and UVB defense.
