Weather in May
Temperature
Pastoria's transition into May brings a slight rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a pleasant 72.1°F (22.3°C) in April to a warm 80.6°F (27°C). Throughout May, an average low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C) is expected.Heat index
The heat index value during May is evaluated at 84.2°F (29°C). Constant exposure and activity lead to possible fatigue. Prolonged exercise may result in heat cramps.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
