Weather in May
Temperature
A subtle rise in the average high-temperature is observed during May, adjusting from a moderately hot 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still warm 85.3°F (29.6°C). During the May nights, an average temperature of 65.1°F (18.4°C) is observed.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. 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 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
