Temperature

The average temperatures reach their apex in May, averaging 30.8°C (87.4°F) at the high end and 28.2°C (82.8°F) at the low end.

Heat index

The average heat index in May is evaluated at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to an imbalance in heat gain, there's a potential for dehydration and overheating.

Persist with safeguards and heed sun safety doctrines. Keeping sunburn at bay is of prime importance. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage. Heads up! UV intensity is amplified by reflections from water and sand.
