Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival coincides with a subtle temperature rise, moving from April's warm 73.8°F (23.2°C) to a still moderately hot 82°F (27.8°C). An average nighttime temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) is observed during May.Heat index
The heat index in May is appraised at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Exposure and extended activity could potentially cause a state of fatigue and lead to heat cramps.When referencing the heat index, its values are suitable for shady environments and light breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
