Weather in May
Temperature
With average high and low temperatures of 30.1°C (86.2°F) and 27.9°C (82.2°F) respectively, May is Gasan's warmest month.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Elevated heat gain compared to the body's release capability poses risks of dehydration and potential overheating.
