Weather in May
Temperature
Observing a minor shift, the average high-temperature during May adjusts from April's 74.8°F (23.8°C) to a still warm 82.9°F (28.3°C). Geiger registers a consistent average low-temperature of 62.2°F (16.8°C) during May.Heat index
The heat index in May is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°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. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
