Weather in May
Temperature
The average high-temperature is a still moderately hot 82.8°F (28.2°C) in May, hardly different from the 78.4°F (25.8°C) recorded in April. May nights experience a consistent temperature drop to a pleasant 71.2°F (21.8°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Exhaustion might be the outcome of enduring exposure and continuous activity, with a risk of heat cramps.When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. 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 essentially critical for children. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
