Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Monticello, is another warm month, with an average temperature ranging between min 61.2°F (16.2°C) and max 81.1°F (27.3°C).

Temperature

With the onset of May, the average high-temperature subtly transitions from 73.8°F (23.2°C) in April to a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). The low-temperature averages to an enjoyable 61.2°F (16.2°C) during the nights of May.

Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
