May weather forecast
Narsingdi, Bangladesh

May, in Narsingdi, Bangladesh, is characterized by the sweltering summer heat. Rising temperatures, coupled with high humidity, result in warmer and muggier days. The higher rainfall during May links with the monsoon season, and the increase in cloud cover signifies this change. Although May records a decrease in sunshine hours, the days are longer, indicating the summer solstice's approach. The night-time minimum temperature makes a notable jump to 26.5°C (79.7°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during May is computed to be a burning hot 51°C (123.8°F). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.
