Weather in May
Temperature
A slight uplift of average high-temperatures is noted in May, with temperatures adjusting from a moderately hot 73.9°F (23.3°C) in April to a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). The average temperature drops to a mild 60.4°F (15.8°C) during the night in the month of May.Heat index
In May, the heat index is evaluated at a hot 86°F (30°C). Remaining active during long-lasting exposure could cause fatigue, leading to heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
