Weather in May
Temperature
May's average high-temperature is a still warm 27.7°C (81.9°F), maintaining a close comparison with April's 28.6°C (83.5°F). Vatukoula sees a minor drop to an average minimum temperature of 23.1°C (73.6°F) during the night in the month of May.Heat index
The average heat index in May is estimated at a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). Long-lasting exposure and activity potentially induce a sense of weariness, with the risk of heat cramps.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. You should know that direct sun exposure can heighten weather effects, potentially elevating the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.

Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
