Weather in May
Temperature
The transition into May is marked with an average high-temperature of a still hot 92.8°F (33.8°C), showing an insignificant shift from April's 89.1°F (31.7°C). Chihuahua's temperature tends to fall to an average low of 72.9°F (22.7°C) during the nights of May.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is calculated to be a blistering 111.2°F (44°C). Mind: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are anticipated. Heatstroke can develop with continued physical activity.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Sunshine

In May, the average daily maximum UV index is 7. A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: A maximum high UV index of 7 in May translates into the following recommendations:
Take precautions and utilize sun safety practices. Protection against skin and eye damage is required. The Sun's UV radiation is most intense from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage.
