Weather in May
Temperature
As May arrives, Sylvan Springs's weather shows a minor increase in high-temperatures, edging from April's moderately hot 73.4°F (23°C) to a still warm 81.7°F (27.6°C). May's average low-temperature reading settles at an enjoyable 61.2°F (16.2°C).Heat index
The heat index value during May is appraised at a hot 86°F (30°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
