Weather in May
Temperature
Buchanan Dam's weather shows a minor temperature rise with the arrival of May, moving from a moderately hot 77.2°F (25.1°C) in April to a still warm 83.1°F (28.4°C). In the month of May, Buchanan Dam's average low-temperature falls to a refreshing 64.4°F (18°C).Heat index
May's heat index is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Long-standing exposure and activity could induce a feeling of tiredness and lead to heat cramps.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance 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.

Beware of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals risk burning in less than 20 minutes. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
