Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Parulan, is another tropical month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 33.8°C (92.8°F) and 24.9°C (76.8°F).

Temperature

May's average high-temperature is a still tropical 33.8°C (92.8°F), maintaining a close comparison with April's 34.1°C (93.4°F). Nighttime temperatures hover around an average low of 24.9°C (76.8°F) in May.

Heat index

The heat index value during May is calculated to be a blazing hot 48°C (118.4°F). Be cautious: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a possible consequence of continuous physical effort.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape 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 quite important for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.

UV index

February through June, August through November, 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 unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.
Note: A daily maximum UV index of 7 in May translates into the following instructions:
Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun's UV radiation is at its peak. Limit your exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat.
