Weather in May
Temperature
May signifies a subtle uplift in the average high-temperature, adjusting from a warm 74.3°F (23.5°C) in April to a still moderately hot 82.4°F (28°C). May nights observe an average temperature dip to a refreshing 64.9°F (18.3°C).Heat index
For May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Remaining active during long-lasting exposure could cause fatigue, leading to heat cramps.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
