May weather forecast
Kennedy Hill, FL

May, the last month of the spring in Kennedy Hill, is a hot month, with an average temperature ranging between min 70°F (21.1°C) and max 86.5°F (30.3°C).

Temperature

The ushering in of May brings an average high-temperature of a tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), closely mirroring the 82.4°F (28°C) of April. In May, the average low-temperature records at an agreeable 70°F (21.1°C) during the nights.

Heat index

During May, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant 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.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Humidity

March and May, with an average relative humidity of 70%, are the least humid months.

UV index

May through September, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for ordinary individuals.
Note: In May, the maximum UV index of 7 suggests this advice:
Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. Limit your exposure to the sun's UV radiation, which is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., and note that parasols or canopies may not provide full sun protection. Equip yourself with UVA and UVB-filtering sunglasses on clear, sunny days.
