Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival coincides with a marginal rise in the average high-temperature, moving from April's 75.6°F (24.2°C) to a still warm 83.1°F (28.4°C). May nights are marked by an average low-temperature of 64.4°F (18°C).Heat index
The heat index value for May is evaluated at a hot 91.4°F (33°C). Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', quantifies the warmth felt when relative humidity is considered. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
