Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May signals a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 76.6°F (24.8°C) in April to a still warm 83.7°F (28.7°C). Boylston's temperature tends to fall to an average low of 62.4°F (16.9°C) during the nights of May.Heat index
In May, the heat index is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Long-standing exposure coupled with ongoing activity could result in exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
