Weather in May

The start of May is characterized by a subtle increase in the average high-temperature, transitioning from a moderately hot 79.7°F (26.5°C) in April to a tropical 86.4°F (30.2°C). Ira documents a striking divergence from daytime highs, with an average nighttime temperature of 63.5°F (17.5°C) in May.Heat index
The average heat index in May is appraised at a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Prolonged exposure and physical activity might induce exhaustion, potentially causing heat cramps.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
