May weather forecast
More Tomorrow, Belize

Following the relatively dry period, May marks the transition into the wet season where rainfall sees a considerable rise. Despite this, the change in weather doesn’t interfere much with the daylight received. This mixture of abundant sunlight coupled with intermittent rainfall brings forth a colorful display of vegetation. The combination of warm temperatures and rain showers fosters an environment teeming with Belize's vibrant greenery and diverse wildlife.

Temperature

The commencement of May introduces an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.3°C (90.1°F), closely mirroring the preceding month. More Tomorrow sees an average low-temperature of 22.4°C (72.3°F) during May.

Heat index

During May, the heat index is appraised at a blazing hot 45°C (113°F). Prudent: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. Heatstroke becomes imminent with sustained exertion.
Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

Elude overexposure. Fair-skinned people could get burnt in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
