Weather in May
Temperature
A minor escalation in the average high-temperature is seen with the onset of May, moving from a warm 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C). During May, the average low-temperature is an enjoyable 65.5°F (18.6°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.
