Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival brings a modest temperature shift, moving from an agreeable 73°F (22.8°C) in April to a moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C). Throughout May, the temperature tends to fall to a consistent average low of 60.3°F (15.7°C).Heat index
In May, the average heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
