Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May marks a slight shift to an average high-temperature of a warm 28.1°C (82.6°F) from April's 30.1°C (86.2°F). During the month of May, an average temperature of 21.3°C (70.3°F) is noted during the nights.Heat index
The heat index value during May is appraised at a tropical 30°C (86°F). Long-lasting exposure and activity potentially induce a sense of weariness, with the risk of heat cramps.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
