Weather in May
Temperature
The beginning of May records an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.4°C (86.7°F), almost echoing the conditions of the previous month. Nighttime temperatures in May average to a moderately hot 23.3°C (73.9°F) in Teotepeque.Heat index
The heat index for May is estimated at a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: A daily high UV index of 7 in May leads to these guidelines:
Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized.
