Temperature
As May arrives, a slight rise in the average high-temperature is observed, moving from 73.4°F (23°C) in April to a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C). Fountain Hill observes an average nighttime temperature of 64°F (17.8°C) during May.Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Prolonged exposure and physical activity might induce exhaustion, potentially causing heat cramps.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
