Weather in May
Temperature
A gentle upsurge in temperatures occurs as April gives way to May, with average highs shifting from a moderately hot 76.8°F (24.9°C) to a still warm 82.9°F (28.3°C). May sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 69.3°F (20.7°C).Heat index
The average heat index in May is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Exposure and extended activity could potentially cause a state of fatigue and lead to heat cramps.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Exposure to the direct sun might augment heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. 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. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
