Weather in May
Temperature
With the start of May, the average high-temperature marginally shifts from April's warm 77.5°F (25.3°C) to a still moderately hot 84.6°F (29.2°C). During May, Pilette records an average temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C) at night.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is estimated at a hot 93.2°F (34°C). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.Heat index values are typically calculated for conditions of shade and a light breeze. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
