Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is a tropical month in Knippa, Texas, with an average temperature varying between 66.7°F (19.3°C) and 86.7°F (30.4°C).

Temperature

May's arrival coincides with a marginal rise in the average high-temperature, moving from April's warm 80.4°F (26.9°C) to a tropical 86.7°F (30.4°C). Knippa's temperature in May lowers to a consistent average of 66.7°F (19.3°C) during the nights.

Heat index

Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. The effect of weather is individual, with a variety of people experiencing it differently due to distinctions in body mass, height, and level of activity. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance 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.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
