Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is a hot month in Stanton, Florida, with an average temperature varying between 86.2°F (30.1°C) and 67.6°F (19.8°C).

Temperature

May's climate shows a minor adjustment in average high-temperatures to a hot 86.2°F (30.1°C) from April's 82°F (27.8°C). During May, the average low-temperature is recorded at a comfortable 67.6°F (19.8°C).

Heat index

May's heat index is calculated to be a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Undertake additional safety actions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Persistent activity may induce heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
