Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is also a moderately hot month in Saratoga, Texas, with an average temperature fluctuating between 85.5°F (29.7°C) and 67.6°F (19.8°C).

Temperature

As May begins, there's a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still warm 85.5°F (29.7°C). An average low-temperature of 67.6°F (19.8°C) is recorded in the month of May.

Heat index

During May, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.

Note: During May, 6 as the daily maximum UV index converts into the following advice:
Use protective steps and abide by sun safety guidelines. Safeguarding against skin and eye harm is necessary. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
