Weather in May
Temperature
Transitioning from April to May, Kagadi observes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.2°C (81°F), differing subtly from the previous month. Throughout the month of May, the average temperature dips to a comfortable 17.5°C (63.5°F) at night.Heat index
During May, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 30°C (86°F). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. 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.
