Temperature

Nueva's warmest temperatures are experienced in May, with average high temperatures of 32.9°C (91.2°F) and lows of 25.9°C (78.6°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in May is appraised at a life-threatening hot 45°C (113°F). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
