Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival coincides with a marginal rise in the average high-temperature, moving from April's 75.9°F (24.4°C) to a still warm 84°F (28.9°C). Throughout May, Ida registers a consistent average low-temperature of 63.1°F (17.3°C).Heat index
May's heat index is estimated at a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). Incorporate additional safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Long-term activity may induce heatstroke.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
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 impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
