Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Hodge, is another warm month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 63.3°F (17.4°C) and 84.6°F (29.2°C).

Temperature

The arrival of May introduces a minor uplift in high-temperatures, adjusting from 76.1°F (24.5°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.6°F (29.2°C). An average temperature of 63.3°F (17.4°C) is recorded during the nights in May.

Heat index

The heat index for May is evaluated at a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are quite important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
