Weather in May
Temperature
The onset of May marks a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from 77.5°F (25.3°C) in April to a still warm 84.7°F (29.3°C). Throughout May, the temperature falls to an average low of 66°F (18.9°C).Heat index
For May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
