Weather in May
Temperature
As April transitions into May, a subtle temperature shift is observed, with average highs adjusting from an agreeable 72.1°F (22.3°C) to a warm 80.6°F (27°C). In Markette, May is marked by an average low-temperature of 61.3°F (16.3°C).Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is evaluated at 84.2°F (29°C). If one remains active during constant exposure, it might cause exhaustion and heat cramps.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
