Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival signals a subtle increase in average high-temperatures, moving from April's 78.4°F (25.8°C) to a still warm 85.6°F (29.8°C). Little River encounters a substantial decline from its daily high to a low-temperature of 63°F (17.2°C) during May nights.Heat index
In May, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to 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.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Rising body temperatures due to excess heat retention could signify impending heat disorders.
