Weather in May
Temperature
May marks a minor ascent in the average high-temperature, adjusting from April's 76.6°F (24.8°C) to a still moderately hot 83.7°F (28.7°C). Throughout May, an average low-temperature of 62.4°F (16.9°C) is experienced.Heat index
May's heat index is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index 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.
