Weather in May
Temperature
May is the month when Santiago Ixcuintepec's temperatures reach their peak, with averages of 35°C (95°F) and lows of 23.8°C (74.8°F).Heat index
May's mean heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
