Weather in May
Temperature
Soulouque's May weather indicates a minor ascent in high-temperatures, adjusting from 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still warm 85.3°F (29.6°C). May nights are marked by an average temperature drop to a comfortable 66.4°F (19.1°C).Heat index
In May, the average heat index is estimated at a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
