Weather in May
Temperature
May begins with an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.9°C (84°F), reflecting close similarity to the preceding month. May records a small disparity from daytime temperatures, marking an average low-temperature of 25.3°C (77.5°F).Heat index
The heat index in May is evaluated at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

Take precautions and adopt sun safety practices. Protection against sunburn is obliged. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. Select sunglasses that boast both UVA and UVB protection to limit the adverse effects of the sun on the eyes.
