Weather in May
Temperature
The average high-temperature mildly increases in May, edging from a warm 74.3°F (23.5°C) in April to a still moderately hot 81.3°F (27.4°C). The nighttime temperature, during May, averages of 62.2°F (16.8°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Long-standing exposure and activity could induce a feeling of tiredness and lead to heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Consider that direct sun exposure can intensify the felt heat, adding potentially 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
