Weather in May
Temperature
The advent of May observes an average high-temperature of a hot 32.9°C (91.2°F), nearly identical to April's 35°C (95°F). An average low-temperature of 21.9°C (71.4°F) is noted during the nights in May in Mapulaca.Heat index
In May, the heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 44°C (111.2°F). Eyes open: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Prolonged exertion could lead to heatstroke.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. 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.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: In May, a daily maximum UV index of 6 leads to the following instructions:
Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. UV radiation from the Sun is most intense between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Sun protection is enhanced with clothing that boasts a tight weave yet offers a loose fit.
