May's mean heat index is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
