Weather in May
Temperature
The onset of May marks an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.6°C (81.7°F), hardly differing from April's 29.5°C (85.1°F). Throughout May in Etam, a steady low-temperature average of 17.3°C (63.1°F) is noted.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 32°C (89.6°F). Exhaustion becomes probable with enduring exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
