May, the last month of the spring in Indian Park, is another warm month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 85.3°F (29.6°C) and 66°F (18.9°C).

Temperature

The arrival of May brings a soft temperature shift, with the average high-temperature nudging from a warm 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C). Indian Park experiences an average temperature drop to a refreshing 66°F (18.9°C) during May nights.

Heat index

The heat index in May is calculated to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
The natural method the human body uses to remove excess heat is by perspiring and letting sweat evaporate. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
