Weather in May
Temperature
The shift into May is marked by a modest rise in the average high-temperature, moving from April's 73.9°F (23.3°C) to a still warm 82.2°F (27.9°C). An average low-temperature of 63.7°F (17.6°C) is recorded in the month of May.Heat index
For May, the heat index is appraised at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Exhaustion might be the outcome of enduring exposure and continuous activity, with a risk of heat cramps.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', ties air temperature with relative humidity to produce the perceived temperature sensation. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
