Weather in May
Temperature
With the onset of May, the average high-temperature subtly transitions from 77.9°F (25.5°C) in April to a still moderately hot 83.8°F (28.8°C). May's average low-temperature reading settles at a pleasant 68°F (20°C).Heat index
May's heat index is estimated at a hot 93.2°F (34°C). Incorporate extra safety measures to avoid heat exhaustion and heat cramps.

Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
