Weather in May
Temperature
Observing a minor shift, the average high-temperature during May adjusts from April's pleasant 72.7°F (22.6°C) to a warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). During the month of May, the nighttime temperature falls to an average of 64.8°F (18.2°C).Heat index
May's average heat index is estimated at a hot 86°F (30°C). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
