Weather in May
Temperature
As May arrives, a slight rise in the average high-temperature is observed, moving from a pleasant 72.7°F (22.6°C) in April to a warm 81°F (27.2°C). Barney records a steady low-temperature average of 60.4°F (15.8°C) during May.Heat index
May's heat index is calculated to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Prolonged activity during exposure might result in a state of fatigue and cause heat cramps.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important 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.
