Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in Wells, Texas, with an average temperature varying between 85.3°F (29.6°C) and 63.9°F (17.7°C).

Temperature

The onset of May marks a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a moderately hot 77.4°F (25.2°C) in April to a still warm 85.3°F (29.6°C). In May, Wells records an average nighttime temperature of 63.9°F (17.7°C).

Heat index

May's average heat index is computed to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
Given the heat index, its values are aligned with shaded sites and gentle winds. 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 composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Children often miss understanding the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst usually appears late during dehydration - therefore, maintaining hydration, particularly during long physical activities, is essential.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. When there is abundant moisture in the air, the body's cooling through the evaporation process becomes less effective, leading to the sensation of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
