Weather in May
Temperature
With the advent of May, Cotton Plant's high-temperatures adjust to a tropical 86.2°F (30.1°C), closely aligning with the preceding month. Cotton Plant observes an average low-temperature of 67.5°F (19.7°C) during May.Heat index
The heat index value during May is calculated to be a fiery hot 96.8°F (36°C). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
