Weather in May
Temperature
With the onset of May, Akron experiences a subtle temperature shift, with the average high-temperature moving from a moderately hot 75.6°F (24.2°C) in April to a still warm 83.5°F (28.6°C). During May, the average low-temperature is an enjoyable 62.2°F (16.8°C).Heat index
The heat index for May is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Ongoing activity coupled with exposure often results in weariness and could induce heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
