Weather in May
Temperature
With the onset of May, Shakertown observes a minor temperature ascent, with the average high-temperature adjusting from April's 73.6°F (23.1°C) to a still moderately hot 81.9°F (27.7°C). Shakertown's nighttime temperature in May falls to an average of 61.3°F (16.3°C).Heat index
For May, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Remaining active during long-lasting exposure could cause fatigue, leading to heat cramps.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. 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 particularly important for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
