Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May signals a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 74.8°F (23.8°C) in April to a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C). During May, the average low-temperature is a mild 60.6°F (15.9°C).Heat index
In May, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). With sustained exposure and activity, exhaustion becomes probable, resulting in heat cramps.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
