Weather in May
Temperature
May, recognised by an average high temperature of 41.4°C (106.5°F) and a low of 21.2°C (70.2°F), is Dank's warmest month.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a burning hot 53°C (127.4°F). Attention: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are quite likely. Heatstroke becomes a risk with continued exertion.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. 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. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.

A UV Index estimate of 8 to 10 represents a very high threat to health from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: An average UV index of 8 in May transforms into this advice:
Take special precautions, as unprotected eyes and skin can be burned and damaged quickly. 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. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
