With the start of May, Morales measures an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.6°C (85.3°F), not significantly differing from April's 29.4°C (84.9°F). Morales's temperature in May lowers to a consistent average of 19.2°C (66.6°F) during the nights.

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is calculated to be a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
