Weather in May
Temperature
May introduces a marginal temperature uplift, with average high-temperatures adjusting from April's 77.5°F (25.3°C) to a still warm 84.2°F (29°C). An average low-temperature of 66°F (18.9°C) is noted during the nights in May.Heat index
The heat index value during May is appraised at a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
