Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another tropical month in Bochil, Mexico, with temperature in the range of an average high of 31.4°C (88.5°F) and an average low of 20°C (68°F).

Temperature

May is marked by an average high-temperature of a still hot 31.4°C (88.5°F), almost identical to the preceding month. Throughout May, Bochil registers a consistent average low-temperature of 20°C (68°F).

Heat index

In May, the average heat index is estimated at a sweltering 38°C (100.4°F). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 69%.

Rainfall

In May, the rain falls for 21.9 days. Throughout May, 86mm (3.39") of precipitation is accumulated. In Bochil, during the entire year, the rain falls for 233.7 days and collects up to 1131mm (44.53") of precipitation.

UV index

In May, the average daily maximum UV index is 6. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.
Note: In May, the maximum UV index of 6 transforms into these recommendations:
Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. The Sun's UV radiation is most powerful between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. To the extent possible, limit exposure to the direct sun during these hours. Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
