Weather in May
Temperature
The shift from April to May is marked by a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from 74.8°F (23.8°C) to a still warm 82.4°F (28°C). Pletcher's average low-temperature is measured at a refreshing 61.5°F (16.4°C) during May.Heat index
The average heat index in May is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Remaining active during long-lasting exposure could cause fatigue, leading to heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.

Stay clear of intense sun exposure. Solar protection is of utmost significance. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a staple for defending the face, eyes, ears, and neck from the Sun.
