Weather in May
Temperature
The advent of May reveals an average high-temperature of a still warm 81.5°F (27.5°C), showing minimal difference from the prior month. During the month of May, Lighthouse Point identifies an average nighttime low-temperature of 75.9°F (24.4°C), slightly lower than its daytime counterpart.Heat index
In May, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Long-lasting exposure and activity potentially induce a sense of weariness, with the risk of heat cramps.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.

Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection. Caution! The Sun's UV intensity grows with reflections off sand and water.
