Temperature

The transition from April to May sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a torrid 38.8°C (101.8°F), from a not significantly different 40.4°C (104.7°F). Tinkole witnesses a consistent, sharp contrast from the daytime highs, with an average low-temperature of 26.2°C (79.2°F) throughout May.

Heat index

May's heat index is computed to be a life-threatening hot 48°C (118.4°F). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.
Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 45%.

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are March through May, with an average maximum UV index of 8. A UV Index value of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high health hazard from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.
Note: The maximum daily UV index of 8 in May converts into the following recommendations:
Ensure safety measures are in place, as skin and eyes are vulnerable to quick damage. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. A hat with a generous brim can prevent nearly 50% of UV rays from reaching your eyes.
