Heat index

The average heat index in May is estimated at a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids often lack the knowledge about the necessity to take breaks and consume liquids. Thirst, as a late symptom of dehydration, necessitates the maintenance of hydration, particularly during enduring physical activities.
The body's innate mechanism to counteract overheating is through perspiration, as it leverages the cooling effects of sweat evaporation. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Humidity

In May, the average relative humidity is 73%.
