Weather in May
Temperature
The shift from April to May introduces a subtle increase in the average high-temperature, moving from an agreeable 72.7°F (22.6°C) to a warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). Mattson registers a consistent average low-temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) during May.Heat index
The heat index value during May is calculated to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Prolonged exposure combined with continuous activity could lead to exhaustion, and possibly heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
