Weather in May
Temperature
The advent of May observes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.2°C (81°F), nearly identical to April's 28.3°C (82.9°F). Wamfuru, in the month of May, anticipates a consistent average low-temperature of 17.5°C (63.5°F).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 30°C (86°F). A sense of exhaustion might occur with extended exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
