Temperature

In Campbell, stepping into May brings a gentle temperature nudge, moving slightly up from April's warm 77.7°F (25.4°C) to a still moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C). The nighttime average for Campbell in May plummets considerably from its daytime counterpart, resting at an enjoyable 62.6°F (17°C).

Heat index

May's average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In situations of high air temperature combined with high humidity (significant heat index), the body's ability to perspire is reduced, heightening the sense of warmth. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.
