Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival coincides with a subtle temperature rise, moving from April's warm 75°F (23.9°C) to a still moderately hot 82.9°F (28.3°C). The mean low-temperature during May nights is an enjoyable 61.9°F (16.6°C).Heat index

If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
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. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. 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 extremely significant for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
