Weather in May
Temperature
May's onset brings a subtle temperature rise, moving from 78.1°F (25.6°C) in April to a still moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C). An average low-temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C) is observed during May nights in Erwinville.Heat index
In May, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 96.8°F (36°C). Incorporate additional preventive steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. The direct sunshine could escalate the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
Humans rely on perspiration as a cooling mechanism, wherein the evaporating sweat counteracts excessive warmth. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
