Weather in May
Temperature
The start of May signals a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 76.5°F (24.7°C) in April to a still moderately hot 83.5°F (28.6°C). An average nighttime temperature of 62.2°F (16.8°C) is noted during the month of May.Heat index
During May, the heat index is estimated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Continuous activity in exposure could lead to a feeling of fatigue and heat cramps.Always consider that heat index estimations are for light winds and places in the shade. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
