With the onset of May, the average high-temperature subtly transitions from a warm 75.2°F (24°C) in April to a still moderately hot 82.9°F (28.3°C). Sondheimer, in May, experiences an average temperature of 64°F (17.8°C) at night.Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is estimated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Uninterrupted exposure and activity might result in fatigue, potentially causing heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. 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 'apparent temperature', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
