Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is a hot month in Tamalín, Mexico, with temperature in the range of an average low of 23°C (73.4°F) and an average high of 31.3°C (88.3°F).

Temperature

The introduction of May notes a subtle temperature variation to a hot 31.3°C (88.3°F) from April's 29.8°C (85.6°F). An average low-temperature of 23°C (73.4°F) marks the nights throughout May.

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Adopt additional preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential outcomes. Prolonged activity may trigger heatstroke.
The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. 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.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
