Weather in May
Temperature
Pennington perceives a slight temperature ascent during May, with average high-temperatures adjusting from a moderately hot 77.4°F (25.2°C) in April to a still warm 84.4°F (29.1°C). Despite a significant deviation from daily highs, May sees an average nighttime temperature of 62.4°F (16.9°C).Heat index
The heat index for May is evaluated at a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
