Weather in May
Temperature
Welcoming May, Tswiza notes an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.7°C (81.9°F), nearly consistent with April's 28.9°C (84°F). Tswiza logs a notable disparity from the daily highs during May, as the nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 14.3°C (57.7°F).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at 29°C (84.2°F). Exhaustion might be the outcome of enduring exposure and continuous activity, with a risk of heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
