Weather in May
Temperature
The average high-temperature in May, at a still moderately hot 84.2°F (29°C), reveals a modest deviation from April's 80.2°F (26.8°C). An average low-temperature of 72.7°F (22.6°C) marks the nights throughout May.Heat index
The heat index value during May is evaluated at a hot 91.4°F (33°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. 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 quite important for babies and toddlers. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
