The last month of the spring, May, is a tropical month in Rye, Texas, with temperature in the range of an average low of 65.7°F (18.7°C) and an average high of 86.2°F (30.1°C).

Temperature

May's onset is marked by a subtle temperature increase, moving from a warm 78.6°F (25.9°C) in April to a hot 86.2°F (30.1°C). Rye throughout May, experiences an average nighttime temperature of 65.7°F (18.7°C).

Heat index

The heat index in May is estimated at a sweltering 98.6°F (37°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a fusion of air temperature and moisture levels to demonstrate the sensation of heat. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. 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 remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
