Weather in May
Temperature
The beginning of May signals a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 73.6°F (23.1°C) in April to a still warm 82°F (27.8°C). Throughout the month of May, the average temperature dips to a comfortable 63.1°F (17.3°C) at night.Heat index
May's mean heat index is evaluated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. 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 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
