Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival brings a modest temperature shift, moving from a pleasant 73°F (22.8°C) in April to a warm 81°F (27.2°C). Wattsville's nighttime temperature in May falls to an average of 60.1°F (15.6°C).Heat index
May's average heat index is calculated to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
