Weather in May
Temperature
The embrace of May brings a minor uplift in the average high-temperature, shifting from a warm 75.4°F (24.1°C) in April to a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C). In Petross, the average temperature during the nights of May drops to a comfortable 64.2°F (17.9°C).Heat index
In May, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Prolonged exposure combined with continuous activity could lead to exhaustion, and possibly heat cramps.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
