Weather in May
Temperature
The average high-temperature for May is a warm 29.8°C (85.6°F), closely aligning with the temperature of the preceding month. Throughout May nights, Nueva Arenosa experiences a consistent temperature average of 24.6°C (76.3°F).Heat index
For May, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Heightened precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are extremely vital to 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.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Adhere to precautions and respect sun safety doctrines. Avoiding sunburn is vital. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. Employ a wide-brim hat for potent defense against up to 50% of UV rays.
