Weather in May
Temperature
As May arrives, a slight rise in the average high-temperature is observed, moving from a moderately hot 77.5°F (25.3°C) in April to a still warm 84.6°F (29.2°C). The average low-temperature, in May, is a pleasant 69.3°F (20.7°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is evaluated at a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
