The heat index in May is estimated at a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). When exposure and activity are sustained, they could induce fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.

Guard against overexposure. Protection from sun-induced harm is essential.

Boost your sun resistance with garments that are densely woven yet spacious.
