May, the last month of the spring in Brownsfield, is another warm month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 85.6°F (29.8°C) and 65.7°F (18.7°C).

Temperature

May's arrival coincides with a marginal rise in the average high-temperature, moving from April's moderately hot 78.4°F (25.8°C) to a still warm 85.6°F (29.8°C). May's average low-temperature reading in Brownsfield settles at a refreshing 65.7°F (18.7°C).

Heat index

May's mean heat index is calculated to be a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. The individual's experience of temperature can be shaped by numerous aspects such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
