Temperature

May ushers in an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.1°C (88°F), aligning closely with the preceding month. During the month of May, the temperature falls to an average of 26°C (78.8°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during May is appraised at a torrid 39°C (102.2°F). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
