May's average heat index is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. When in direct sunlight, one should be cautious as it can raise the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
