Weather in May
Temperature
In Pitas, Malaysia, the peak temperatures are generally noted in May, averaging a high of 30.5°C (86.9°F) and a low of 27°C (80.6°F).Heat index
May's mean heat index is computed to be a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by many aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful 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.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.Note: The daily high UV index of 7 during May translates into the following recommendations:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Be aware that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and try to reduce direct sun exposure during this period as much as possible. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
