Weather in May
Temperature
Cochrane's average high-temperature in May is a still moderately hot 29.8°C (85.6°F), marking an insignificant difference from the 29.6°C (85.3°F) of April. In Cochrane, May nights experience a modest descent in temperature from daily peaks, cooling down to an average of 26.2°C (79.2°F).Heat index
During May, the heat index is calculated to be a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Cochrane. January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in May leads to these recommendations:
Deflect overexposure. Sun protection is a necessity. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. Boost your sun resistance with garments that are densely woven yet spacious.
