Weather in May
Temperature
Ingende records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.9°C (89.4°F) as May arrives, nearly mirroring the previous month's climate. An average low-temperature of 21.8°C (71.2°F) is noted during the month of May.Heat index
May's heat index is computed to be a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Be on the lookout: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Continued exertion can result in heatstroke.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. 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. If the body retains more heat than it can expel, the increasing temperature can lead to heat-related conditions.

A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: The maximum daily UV index, 7 in May, converts into the following recommendations:
Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
