Temperature

The arrival of May brings an average high-temperature of a tropical 30.3°C (86.5°F), subtly diverging from April's 29.8°C (85.6°F). Throughout May, a minimal difference from peak daytime temperatures is noted, marking a steady low-temperature average of 25.8°C (78.4°F).

Heat index

For May, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones generally face higher dangers than adults since they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface area compared totheir small bodies and increased heat production from their activities, the risks are heightened.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.

Humidity

January, February, April and May, with an average relative humidity of 77%, are the most humid months.

Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during May translates into the following directions:
Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
