Weather in May

The average high-temperature in May, at a still moderately hot 82.6°F (28.1°C), reveals a modest deviation from April's 80.4°F (26.9°C). In Hollywood, the nighttime temperature shows a slight difference from the daytime high, averaging to a still warm 76.5°F (24.7°C) during May.Heat index
The heat index for May is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). A sense of exhaustion might occur with extended exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
