Weather in May
Temperature
The shift into May is characterized by a subtle rise in the average high-temperature, transitioning from April's moderately hot 73.9°F (23.3°C) to a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). Nighttime temperature experiences an average drop to an enjoyable 62.8°F (17.1°C) in May.Heat index
Throughout May, the heat index is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). If one persists in activity during exposure, it could induce weariness and subsequently, heat cramps.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Children often do not understand the need to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - therefore, it is essential to stay hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
