Weather in May
Temperature
The transition from April to May brings a subtle temperature rise, with average high-temperatures increasing from a moderately hot 80.6°F (27°C) to a hot 86.7°F (30.4°C). Fargo cools down to an average low-temperature of 65.8°F (18.8°C) throughout the month of May.Heat index
For May, the heat index is appraised at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
