Weather in May
Temperature
The shift into May records an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.1°C (80.8°F), subtly varied from April's 28.8°C (83.8°F). May nights are marked by an average temperature drop to a refreshing 18.3°C (64.9°F).Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is calculated to be 29°C (84.2°F). Continuous exposure and activity could induce a sense of tiredness and subsequently, heat cramps.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
