Weather in May

May's onset witnesses a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 77.5°F (25.3°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.4°F (29.1°C). Ossun usually reports an average low-temperature of 67.1°F (19.5°C) during the month of May.Heat index
May's mean heat index is computed to be a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). Take special precautions - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are expected. Heatstroke may occur with lengthy activity.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. The presence of direct sunlight can raise the heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an indicator that blends the effects of temperature and humidity to depict perceived warmth. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can influence one's weather perception. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
