Temperature

The temperatures reach their highest averages in May, with highs of 34.8°C (94.6°F) and lows of 22.5°C (72.5°F).

Heat index

In May, the average heat index is computed to be a burning hot 50°C (122°F). Take heed: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are anticipated. Heatstroke is a potential outcome of continuous activity.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. Heightened relative humidity interferes with the body's usual cooling mechanism by reducing evaporation, subsequently decreasing the body's cooling rate and increasing the sensation of heat. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity in Cuncunul is 70%.

UV index

March through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Cuncunul. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: The UV index of 7 during May translates into the following guidance:
Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. 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. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
