Weather in May
Temperature
The shift into May is characterized by a subtle rise in the average high-temperature, transitioning from April's agreeable 72.9°F (22.7°C) to a warm 80.6°F (27°C). During the nights in May, an average low-temperature of 60.4°F (15.8°C) is observed.Heat index
May's heat index is computed to be 84.2°F (29°C). Long-standing exposure coupled with ongoing activity could result in exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.The metrics for the heat index are tailored for both shady environments and light winds. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
