Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival signals a subtle increase in average high-temperatures, moving from April's warm 78.4°F (25.8°C) to a still moderately hot 85.6°F (29.8°C). Westover, in May, experiences an average temperature of 65.7°F (18.7°C) at night.Heat index
The average heat index in May is evaluated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Overheating can ensue when the body accumulates more heat than it can release, and dehydration severity may vary.
