Weather in May
Temperature
Flora experiences a minor temperature shift with the start of May, with average high-temperatures moving from a moderately hot 75.6°F (24.2°C) in April to a still warm 83.3°F (28.5°C). Throughout May, Flora anticipates an average low-temperature of 63.3°F (17.4°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Constant activity during exposure could result in a state of weariness and possibly heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. 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 highly important for children. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
