The dawn of May sees an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.3°C (88.3°F), subtly contrasting with April's 32.3°C (90.1°F). Consistently, Amoutive reports average nighttime temperatures of 26.6°C (79.9°F) during May, a marginal step down from its daytime highs.

Heat index

In May, the heat index is computed to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Evaporating sweat, thanks to perspiration, acts as a natural air conditioner for the human body. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

In May, the average relative humidity in Amoutive is 76%.
