Weather in May

A slight uplift of average high-temperatures is noted in May, with temperatures adjusting from a moderately hot 75°F (23.9°C) in April to a still warm 82°F (27.8°C). During May, Arcola sees a mean low-temperature of 64.4°F (18°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). Long-standing exposure coupled with ongoing activity could result in exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
