Weather in May
Temperature
May introduces a minor temperature shift, with average high-temperatures adjusting from April's moderately hot 80.4°F (26.9°C) to a hot 86.7°F (30.4°C). Throughout the month of May, Utopia expects an average low of 66.7°F (19.3°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. The heat index could see an increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. 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. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children are often less aware of the need to rest and re-hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - it's vital to remain hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With excessive moisture in the atmosphere, the effectiveness of the evaporation process is decreased, causing the body to cool down less efficiently, leading to a sensation of overheating. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
