Weather in May
Temperature
May's onset is marked by a subtle temperature increase, moving from 74.1°F (23.4°C) in April to a still warm 81.5°F (27.5°C). During the month of May, an average temperature of 60.8°F (16°C) is noted during the nights.Heat index
The heat index value during May is estimated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
