Weather in May
Temperature
Hatillo, Dominican Republic, records a slight change with May's average high-temperatures adjusting to a still warm 29.1°C (84.4°F) from April's 28.9°C (84°F). May witnesses an average nighttime temperature of 22.3°C (72.1°F).Heat index
The heat index in May is evaluated at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
