Weather in May
Temperature
Observing a minor shift, the average high-temperature during May adjusts from April's warm 74.3°F (23.5°C) to a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C). May brings an average low-temperature of 70.3°F (21.3°C) to Niceville.Heat index
May's mean heat index is estimated at a hot 86°F (30°C). With extended exposure and activity, one might feel exhausted and experience heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
