Weather in May
Temperature
May temperatures tend to peak at an average high of 31.1°C (88°F) and dip to a low of 25.8°C (78.4°F).Heat index
The heat index in May is evaluated at a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Adopt enhanced safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps could occur. Continuous activity may induce heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Evaporating sweat, an outcome of perspiration, is key in assisting the human body to moderate its temperature. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
Humidity
May, June and August, with an average relative humidity of 79%, are the least humid months.Rainfall
In May, the rain falls for 24.4 days. Throughout May, 103mm (4.06") of precipitation is accumulated. In Maripipi, during the entire year, the rain falls for 266.5 days and collects up to 1207mm (47.52") of precipitation.Sea temperature

Sunshine

February through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.Note: The UV index of 7 during May translates into the following guidance:
Avoid overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can burn in under 20 minutes. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection. Take note! Sand and water reflections strengthen the Sun's UV exposure.
