The last month of the spring, May, is a hot month in Fred, Texas, with temperature in the range of an average high of 86.4°F (30.2°C) and an average low of 65.7°F (18.7°C).

May marks a minor ascent in the average high-temperature, adjusting from April's warm 78.6°F (25.9°C) to a tropical 86.4°F (30.2°C). In May, Fred records an average nighttime temperature of 65.7°F (18.7°C).

Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is evaluated at a very hot 98.6°F (37°C). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.
In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. An upsurge in relative humidity affects normal body cooling mechanisms by slowing evaporation, hence reducing the rate at which the body cools and intensifying the perception of heat. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
