Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Coy, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 62.6°F (17°C) and 85.3°F (29.6°C).

Temperature

Coy's weather in May shows a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving slightly up from April's 77.7°F (25.4°C) to a still warm 85.3°F (29.6°C). Against the high May temperatures, Coy records an average drop to an enjoyable 62.6°F (17°C) at night.

Heat index

May's average heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 95°F (35°C). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. It is noteworthy to mention that direct sunlight exposure can augment the felt temperature, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Youngsters often neglect the necessity for rest and hydration. Thirst is a sign of advancing dehydration - thus the importance of maintaining hydration, specifically during long-lasting physical activities.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
