Weather in May
Temperature
The warmest months are April and May, with an average high-temperature of 31.8°C (89.2°F).Heat index
In May, the average heat index is estimated at a scorching 41°C (105.8°F). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
