Weather in May
Temperature
May showcases a minor temperature ascent, adjusting from April's moderately hot 74.3°F (23.5°C) to a still warm 82.4°F (28°C). The average temperature during May nights is registered at a refreshing 62.2°F (16.8°C).Heat index
In May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Continued exposure and engagement in activity might trigger tiredness and subsequently heat cramps.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. 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 'felt air temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
