Weather in May
Temperature
May brings a slight elevation in the average high-temperature, transitioning from April's pleasant 72.9°F (22.7°C) to a moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C). Drew observes an average nighttime temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) during May.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). If one remains active during constant exposure, it might cause exhaustion and heat cramps.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
