Weather in May
Temperature
A soft shift in the average high-temperature is noticeable in May, transitioning from a moderately hot 74.7°F (23.7°C) in April to a still warm 81.5°F (27.5°C). An average minimum temperature of 64.4°F (18°C) marks the month of May.Heat index
For May, the heat index is calculated to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Exhaustion becomes probable with enduring exposure and activity, potentially causing heat cramps.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
