Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Bethany, is a hot month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 86.4°F (30.2°C) and 70.3°F (21.3°C).

Temperature

An average high-temperature of a hot 86.4°F (30.2°C) marks May, exhibiting a close resemblance to the conditions in April. Bethany's temperature tends to fall to an average low of 70.3°F (21.3°C) during the nights of May.

Heat index

May's average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Being aware that direct sunlight can impact the felt heat might mean an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
