Weather in May
Temperature
As May arrives, Mamou's weather shows a minor increase in high-temperatures, edging from April's moderately hot 77°F (25°C) to a still warm 84.2°F (29°C). Mamou's temperature lowers to a mean of 65.8°F (18.8°C) during the nights in May.Heat index
The heat index value during May is computed to be a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
