Weather in May
Temperature
May brings an average high-temperature of a tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), nearly identical to the preceding month. An average low-temperature of 71.2°F (21.8°C) marks the nights throughout May.Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is appraised at a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children frequently do not comprehend the need for rest and hydration. Thirst is an advanced stage of dehydration - staying hydrated, especially during extended physical exercises, is essential.
Sweat evaporation, driven by perspiration, is the method the human body uses to rid itself of excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity hinders the body's normal cooling function by reducing evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of body cooling and enhancing the sense of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
