Weather in May
Temperature
As April gives way to May, the average high-temperature displays a slight ascent, adjusting from a moderately hot 73.4°F (23°C) to a still warm 81°F (27.2°C). May brings an average low-temperature of 62.6°F (17°C) to Chapin.Heat index
May's heat index is appraised at a hot 86°F (30°C). If one persists in activity during exposure, it could induce weariness and subsequently, heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
