May weather forecast
Nebbi, Uganda

The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in Nebbi, Uganda, with an average temperature varying between 29.9°C (85.8°F) and 19.9°C (67.8°F).

Temperature

On the advent of May, Nebbi's average high-temperature exhibits a minor adjustment to a moderately hot 29.9°C (85.8°F) from April's 31.4°C (88.5°F). Nebbi observes an average low-temperature of 19.9°C (67.8°F) during May nights.

Heat index

May's heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Exercise enhanced safety steps, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke could be a result of sustained activity.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. 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. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. 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.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Under conditions of high relative humidity, the rate of evaporation decreases. This results in the body retaining more heat than under conditions of dry air. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Humidity

May is the most humid month, with an average relative humidity of 75%.

UV index

April through November, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: The UV index of 6 during May leads to these advisories:
Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. Enhance your sun protection with tightly woven, yet airy clothing.
