Weather in May
Temperature
Cocoa observes a minor difference in average high-temperatures between April's 79°F (26.1°C) and May's 82.4°F (28°C). During the May nights, an average temperature of 72°F (22.2°C) is observed.Heat index
The heat index in May is appraised at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If one persists in activity during exposure, it could induce weariness and subsequently, heat cramps.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. 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. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
