Weather in May
Temperature
The onset of May marks a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a pleasant 72.9°F (22.7°C) in April to a moderately hot 81.3°F (27.4°C). The low-temperature average for Slate Spring during May stands at an enjoyable 61.9°F (16.6°C).Heat index
For May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Staying active during long-term exposure might result in a state of exhaustion and cause heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. One's exposure to direct sunlight has the potential to intensify the heat sensation, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
