Temperature

The arrival of May witnesses a small shift in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 74.3°F (23.5°C) in April to a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). An average low-temperature of 70.3°F (21.3°C) is common during the nights of May.

Heat index

May's mean heat index is appraised at a hot 86°F (30°C). With ongoing exposure and activity, one might experience weariness, and heat cramps could ensue.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.

To cut down UV radiation exposure by about half, sport a wide-brim hat. Be careful! The Sun's UV radiation is accentuated by reflecting off sand and water.
