Weather in May
Temperature
The shift into May is marked by a modest rise in the average high-temperature, moving from April's 74.5°F (23.6°C) to a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C). Gertrude's temperature tends to fall to an average low of 63.5°F (17.5°C) during the nights of May.Heat index
The heat index value during May is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Enduring exposure and ongoing activity could cause a sense of fatigue and subsequent heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
