Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Quimby, is also a moderately hot month, with an average temperature varying between 82.9°F (28.3°C) and 64°F (17.8°C).

Temperature

The commencement of May sees a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 75.2°F (24°C) in April to a still warm 82.9°F (28.3°C). The low-temperature averages to a refreshing 64°F (17.8°C) during the nights of May.

Heat index

The heat index value during May is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If one continues to be active during exposure, it might cause tiredness and subsequent heat cramps.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct sunlight can potentially raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees, so it's crucial to consider. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. 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.
