Temperature

The unfolding of May shows an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.4°C (86.7°F), indicating a slight variance from April's hot 30.4°C (86.7°F). In the month of May, the temperature generally rests at an average low of 23.1°C (73.6°F).

Heat index

In May, the average heat index is evaluated at a fiery hot 37°C (98.6°F). Emphasize additional safety, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is high. Continuous activity might result in heatstroke.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Elevated relative humidity disrupts typical body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, consequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and enhancing the feeling of heat. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 75%.

UV index

April through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: The maximum daily UV index of 7 in May converts into the following recommendations:
Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
