Weather in May
Temperature
The coming of May brings a minor shift in Angola's weather, with average high-temperatures adjusting from April's moderately hot 77.5°F (25.3°C) to a still warm 84.6°F (29.2°C). In May, Angola records an average nighttime temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C).Heat index
May's heat index is estimated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones often do not realize the necessity to rest and replenish their fluids. Thirst is a delayed indication of dehydration - keeping hydrated, particularly in prolonged physical activity, is crucial.
The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism through perspiration; evaporating sweat dissipates the excess heat. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Sunshine
In Angola, the average sunshine in May is 9.6h.UV index
The average daily maximum UV index in May is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: The UV index of 6 during May leads to these advisories:
Enforce precautions and stick to sun safety measures. Preservation from skin and eye damage is essential. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation.
