Weather in May
Temperature
May introduces a marginal temperature uplift, with average high-temperatures adjusting from April's agreeable 73°F (22.8°C) to a moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C). Throughout May nights, Lincoln registers an average low-temperature of 59.9°F (15.5°C).Heat index
May's mean heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Long-lasting exposure and activity potentially induce a sense of weariness, with the risk of heat cramps.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
