Weather in May

May in Kuala Belait heralds a significant weather change with a noticeable shift in various elemental parameters. The UV index remains constant, maintaining the earlier trend. However, April's 129mm (5.08") of rainfall reduces to 123mm (4.84"), introducing relatively infrequent showers. A reduction in relative humidity is apparent, leading to a drier atmosphere slightly. The most telling aspect of the May weather remains the increased daylight from previous months.

Temperature

The warmest period is May, when temperatures fluctuate between an average high of 31.7°C (89.1°F) and a low of 25.7°C (78.3°F).

Heat index

The heat index for May is evaluated at an extremely hot 42°C (107.6°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important 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.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
