Weather in May
Temperature
The transition from April to May brings a subtle temperature rise, with average high-temperatures increasing from 74.5°F (23.6°C) to a still warm 83.1°F (28.4°C). During May nights, Lawson records an average temperature of 62.6°F (17°C).Heat index
During May, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Continued exposure and engagement in activity might trigger tiredness and subsequently heat cramps.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.

Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Avoid direct Sun exposure and stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is most intense, noting that not all shade structures offer full protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes.
