Weather in May
Temperature
May marks a minor ascent in the average high-temperature, adjusting from April's warm 78.4°F (25.8°C) to a tropical 86.4°F (30.2°C). An average nighttime temperature of 65.1°F (18.4°C) is noted during the month of May.Heat index
The heat index for May is calculated to be a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. In the presence of abundant moisture in the atmosphere, the cooling process through evaporation is hindered, causing the body to feel excessively warm. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.
