Weather in May
Temperature
May marks a minor ascent in the average high-temperature, adjusting from April's 74.1°F (23.4°C) to a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). Denmark's nights in May cool down to an average low-temperature of 63.7°F (17.6°C).Heat index
May's average heat index is evaluated at a hot 86°F (30°C). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.For clarity, heat index numbers account for light winds and areas under shade. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.

The average daily maximum UV index in May is 6. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the average person.Note: A daily high UV index of 6 in May leads to these guidelines:
Resist extreme sun exposure. Guarding against solar damage is essential. Stay out of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide complete protection. Prioritize a wide-brim hat for comprehensive sun defense for your face, neck, eyes, and ears.
