Weather in May
Temperature
May's onset witnesses a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from a pleasant 72.9°F (22.7°C) in April to a warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). An average low-temperature of 62.8°F (17.1°C) is common during the nights of May.Heat index
The average heat index in May is evaluated at a hot 86°F (30°C). Long-standing exposure coupled with ongoing activity could result in exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.

Endorse precautions and be consistent with sun safety guidelines. Preventing sunburn is paramount. Limit direct sun exposure especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. However, keep in mind that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Sunglasses providing both UVA and UVB protection are non-negotiable on sunlit days.
