Weather in May
Temperature
The start of May is characterized by a subtle increase in the average high-temperature, transitioning from a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C) in April to a warm 81°F (27.2°C). Throughout the month of May, the average temperature dips to a moderate 60.4°F (15.8°C) at night.Heat index
In May, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Extended exposure and activity might lead to tiredness, potentially resulting in heat cramps.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle 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 'real feel', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
