Weather in May
Temperature
May's onset is marked by a subtle temperature increase, moving from a moderately hot 78.6°F (25.9°C) in April to a still warm 85.1°F (29.5°C). In the month of May, Edna experiences an average low-temperature of 69.4°F (20.8°C).Heat index
May's average heat index is estimated at a torrid 95°F (35°C). Exercise special caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Prolonged activity may induce heatstroke.Heat index's context suggests values are appropriate for shady areas and slight breezes. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Be aware that direct exposure to sunlight increases heat impact and may raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
