Weather in May

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

Temperature

May's onset brings a subtle temperature rise, moving from a moderately hot 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still warm 85.3°F (29.6°C). Throughout the month of May, Sable Chase expects an average low of 66°F (18.9°C).

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Fend off the sun's harsh rays with appropriate clothing, a wide-brim hat, and UV-protective sunglasses.
