Weather in May
Temperature
May's weather records an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.3°C (81.1°F), showing little deviation from April. Falelima encounters a small divergence from daytime high temperatures, averaging a low-temperature of 26.3°C (79.3°F) during May nights.Heat index
May's heat index is computed to be a tropical 31°C (87.8°F). Constant activity during exposure could result in a state of weariness and possibly heat cramps.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
