The start of May is characterized by a subtle increase in the average high-temperature, transitioning from 75.4°F (24.1°C) in April to a still warm 82.4°F (28°C). Rochelle, in the month of May, anticipates a consistent average low-temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C).

Heat index

May's mean heat index is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during enduring exposure, it could result in fatigue and heat cramps.
Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. 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.
