Weather in May
Temperature
A soft shift in the average high-temperature is noticeable in May, transitioning from 76.6°F (24.8°C) in April to a still warm 83.8°F (28.8°C). Throughout May, Bear Creek witnesses a nighttime temperature average of 63.1°F (17.3°C).Heat index
In May, the heat index is computed to be a hot 91.4°F (33°C). Take extra precautions, as heat cramps and heat exhaustion are possible. Sustained activity may result in heatstroke.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. 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 remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
