Weather in May
Temperature
The shift into May is marked by a modest rise in the average high-temperature, moving from April's agreeable 73°F (22.8°C) to a warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). In May, the temperature in Fair Park drops to an average of 60.3°F (15.7°C) at night.Heat index
The average heat index in May is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). If exposure and activity are sustained, they might cause a feeling of weariness, resulting in heat cramps.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young individuals are generally in more danger than adults due to their lower capacity to sweat. Moreover, their large skin surface in relation to their small bodies and the increased heat generation from their activities makes them more vulnerable.
