Weather in May
Temperature
As Jay transitions into May, a marginal rise in the average high-temperature is observed, moving from 78.1°F (25.6°C) in April to a still moderately hot 85.1°F (29.5°C). In Jay, the May nights cool down to an average low of 64.4°F (18°C).Heat index
May's mean heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

Deflect overexposure. Sun protection is a necessity. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is at its strongest, and remember that parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
