Weather in May
Temperature
The start of May signals a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from 73.9°F (23.3°C) in April to a still moderately hot 81.9°F (27.7°C). During May, Lake Purdy experiences an average low-temperature of 61.2°F (16.2°C) at night.Heat index
The heat index value for May is estimated at a hot 86°F (30°C). Exposure and extended activity could potentially cause a state of fatigue and lead to heat cramps.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
