Weather in May
Temperature
With the onset of May, Unity experiences a subtle temperature shift, with the average high-temperature moving from 73.9°F (23.3°C) in April to a still warm 81.3°F (27.4°C). During the nights in May, Unity observes an average low-temperature of 60.1°F (15.6°C).Heat index
During May, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. 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 individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
