Weather in May
Temperature
As May begins, there's a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 74.1°F (23.4°C) in April to a still moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C). During May, Saginaw records an average temperature of 60.8°F (16°C) at night.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Enduring exposure and unrelenting activity might cause a state of weariness, potentially leading to heat cramps.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
