Weather in May
Temperature
May signals a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from April's warm 73.8°F (23.2°C) to a still moderately hot 81.1°F (27.3°C). During the month of May, the nighttime temperature falls to an average of 61.2°F (16.2°C).Heat index
May's mean heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Persistently participating in activities during exposure may lead to fatigue and induce heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
