Weather in May
Temperature
The shift to May signals an average high-temperature of a tropical 88.9°F (31.6°C), subtly varied from April's 83.8°F (28.8°C). The average nighttime temperature lowers to an agreeable 70.3°F (21.3°C) throughout May.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. A surge in relative humidity can disrupt the body's normal cooling function by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
