Temperature

The average high-temperature for May is a tropical 86.4°F (30.2°C), closely aligning with the temperature of the preceding month. May nights cool down to an average low-temperature of 68.5°F (20.3°C).

Heat index

The heat index value during May is computed to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in May is 73%.

UV index

Note: A daily high UV index of 7 in May leads to these guidelines:
Shun overexposure. Protection from sun ravages is indispensable. Seek shade and limit direct Sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but be aware that not all shade structures provide complete sun protection. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
