Weather in May
Temperature
The unfolding of May shows an average high-temperature of a hot 88.3°F (31.3°C), indicating a slight variance from April's 83.3°F (28.5°C). May witnesses an average nighttime temperature of 70.7°F (21.5°C).Heat index
The heat index value during May is appraised at an extremely hot 104°F (40°C). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.In reference to the heat index, it's for places in shade and with a slight wind. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.
