Weather in May
Temperature
May's onset brings a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 75.7°F (24.3°C) in April to a still warm 82.4°F (28°C). Roper experiences an average nighttime temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) in the month of May.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is calculated to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.

Employ safeguards and advocate sun safety protocols. Shielding against skin and eye damage is crucial. UV radiation from the sun is at its strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure during these hours. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
