Weather in May
Temperature
With the beginning of May, Walls's average high-temperature sees a minor increase, transitioning from a moderately hot 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still warm 85.6°F (29.8°C). Walls records an average nighttime low of 65.7°F (18.7°C) in May.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is calculated to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. If exposed to direct sunlight, the heat index could climb by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. 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 are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.

May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index in Walls. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for average individuals.Note: A daily maximum UV index of 7 in May translates into the following instructions:
Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Avoid direct sunlight between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Keep in mind that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects.
