Weather in May
Temperature
In Parksdale, the onset of May comes with a modest high-temperature shift, transitioning from April's moderately hot 73.9°F (23.3°C) to a still warm 82.6°F (28.1°C). May nights experience a distinct temperature drop from the daily highs, with an average low-temperature of 55.9°F (13.3°C).Heat index
The heat index value during May is evaluated at 82.4°F (28°C). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. 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. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
