Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May marks a slight shift to an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.3°C (84.7°F) from April's 28.1°C (82.6°F). Nightly temperatures drop to an average low of 21.8°C (71.2°F) in May.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 30°C (86°F). With sustained exposure and activity, exhaustion becomes probable, resulting in heat cramps.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.

Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects.
