Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May brings a soft temperature shift, with the average high-temperature nudging from a moderately hot 73.4°F (23°C) in April to a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). Napoleon's temperature drops to an average low of 60.4°F (15.8°C) during the nights of May.Heat index
May's average heat index is estimated at a hot 86°F (30°C). Fatigue might occur with continuous exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. 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. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
