Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is a hot month in Jayton, Texas, with an average temperature varying between 86.7°F (30.4°C) and 63.9°F (17.7°C).

Temperature

As May begins, there's a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 80.1°F (26.7°C) in April to a tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C). In stark contrast to the day's heat, the temperature dips to an average of 63.9°F (17.7°C) during May nights.

Heat index

May's mean heat index is calculated to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Continuous activity in exposure could lead to a feeling of fatigue and heat cramps.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly important for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.

Note: The daily high UV index of 7 in May translates into this advice:
Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. In the presence of strong sunlight, it's crucial to wear sunglasses that ward off UVA and UVB rays.
