Weather in May
Temperature
As Long Beach welcomes May, the average high-temperature sees a modest rise, transitioning from a warm 75.7°F (24.3°C) in April to a still moderately hot 82.2°F (27.9°C). An average low-temperature of 69.4°F (20.8°C) is expected during May.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is computed to be a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If exposure and ongoing activity persist, they might induce a state of tiredness and heat cramps.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. 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.
