Weather in May

May in Texas is a month characterized by warmth and the zenith of spring's exuberance. The northern areas, including the vicinity of Seminole, fully embrace spring's warmth. Morning temperatures generally start around 55°F (12.8°C), while daytime highs often approach or even exceed 85°F (29.4°C).

The heart of Texas, the central region, experiences a noticeable increase in warmth with lows hovering around 65°F (18.3°C) and daytime temperatures often reaching up to 90°F (32.2°C). Meanwhile, the southeastern parts, influenced by the Gulf of Mexico, continue to experience a maritime warmth with temperatures oscillating between 70°F (21.1°C) during cooler periods and highs that can touch 95°F (35°C) or more on particularly warm days.

May stands out as one of the rainiest months in Texas, particularly in the eastern part of the state. These rains, while ensuring continued greenery, also herald the beginning of the region's severe weather season, with the possibility of thunderstorms and even tornadoes. Yet, these phenomena predominantly impact the eastern region, leaving much of the rest of the state with sporadic spring showers.

Compared to April, May showcases an escalation in both warmth and rainfall intensity across Texas. As May concludes and Texas gears up for June, there is a distinct shift towards the early stages of summer, with hotter days on the horizon. While May embodies the conclusion of spring, it simultaneously prepares Texas for the heat and vigor of the approaching summer months.
