Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another tropical month in Zumarraga, Philippines, with an average temperature varying between 31.5°C (88.7°F) and 23.8°C (74.8°F).

Temperature

May is the warmest month, with an average high-temperature of 31.5°C (88.7°F) and an average low-temperature of 23.8°C (74.8°F).

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Keep guard: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Continued activity increases the risk of heatstroke.
Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. 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. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Note: In May, the average maximum UV index of 7 translates into the following recommendations:
Employ safeguards and advocate sun safety protocols. Shielding against skin and eye damage is crucial. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. For excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck, consider a wide-brim hat. Stay alert! Reflective properties of sand and water amplify the Sun's UV radiation.
