Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival coincides with a subtle temperature rise, moving from April's 74.8°F (23.8°C) to a still warm 81.7°F (27.6°C). Garfield experiences a consistent average temperature of 64°F (17.8°C) throughout the nights in May.Heat index
The heat index for May is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Long-standing exposure coupled with ongoing activity could result in exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
