Weather in May
Temperature
The ushering in of May brings an average high-temperature of a hot 86.4°F (30.2°C), closely mirroring the 81.9°F (27.7°C) of April. An average low-temperature of 66.7°F (19.3°C) is observed during May nights.Heat index
May's average heat index is calculated to be a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Special measures are necessary to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity could result in heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Resist overexposure. Safeguarding from solar damage is indispensable. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
