Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival coincides with a subtle temperature rise, moving from April's warm 73.9°F (23.3°C) to a still moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C). Bentleyville records an average low-temperature of 60.3°F (15.7°C) throughout the month of May.Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Prolonged exposure and physical activity might induce exhaustion, potentially causing heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
