Weather in May
Temperature
The average high-temperature mildly increases in May, edging from a pleasant 72.3°F (22.4°C) in April to a moderately hot 80.8°F (27.1°C). Whitefield experiences a steady low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C) throughout May.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is appraised at a tropical 86°F (30°C). With unrelenting exposure and activity, one might experience exhaustion, leading to potential heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. 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 particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
