May, the last month of the spring in Fatama, is also a moderately hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 85.3°F (29.6°C) and an average low of 62.6°F (17°C).

Observing a minor shift, the average high-temperature during May adjusts from April's warm 77.7°F (25.4°C) to a still moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C). A significant temperature decrease to an average a refreshing 62.6°F (17°C) characterizes Fatama's nighttime temperatures during May.

Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.
