Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival coincides with a subtle temperature rise, moving from April's moderately hot 76.8°F (24.9°C) to a still warm 82.9°F (28.3°C). McTier observes an average low-temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) during May.Heat index
During May, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). With unrelenting exposure and activity, one might experience exhaustion, leading to potential heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact 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 hold particular significance for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
