Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival brings a modest temperature shift, moving from a moderately hot 75°F (23.9°C) in April to a still warm 81.7°F (27.6°C). Sheppards's average low-temperature during May nights is observed to be a refreshing 64°F (17.8°C).Heat index
The average heat index in May is calculated to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). Ongoing activity coupled with exposure often results in weariness and could induce heat cramps.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Be mindful that being in direct sunlight might mean feeling hotter, with the heat index rising by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
