Weather in May
Temperature
The onset of May marks an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.8°C (85.6°F), hardly differing from April's 29.6°C (85.3°F). Caparo's May nights witness minimal differential from the daytime temperatures, with averages of 26.2°C (79.2°F).Heat index
The heat index value for May is estimated at a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiration, which is the evaporation of sweat, is a primary way the human body manages and dispels excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.

Inhibit overexposure. Warding off sun damage is of utmost importance. It's important to stay in the shade and limit exposure to the sun from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, although remember that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Loose clothes with a tight weave are optimal for safeguarding yourself against the Sun's rays.
