Weather in May
Temperature
During May, Skytop records an average high-temperature of a tropical 86.5°F (30.3°C), marking a slight divergence from April's 82°F (27.8°C). Skytop encounters a steady low-temperature average of 68.2°F (20.1°C) throughout the month of May.Heat index
For May, the heat index is evaluated at a torrid 98.6°F (37°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. When directly under the sun, the weather's impact can intensify, possibly boosting the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.
