Temperature

The warmest time of the year is May, with temperatures averaging a high of 31.4°C (88.5°F) and a low of 25.6°C (78.1°F).

Heat index

The heat index value during May is calculated to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a measure of how hot it feels when the actual air humidity is factored in. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

UV index

Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in May leads to these recommendations:
Undertake protective measures and comply with sun safety rules. Shielding against skin and eye damage is essential. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. In bright sunlight, prioritize sunglasses that grant protection from UVA and UVB radiation.
