Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May signals a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 78.6°F (25.9°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C). May witnesses an average low-temperature hovering around a refreshing 66.7°F (19.3°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a sweltering 95°F (35°C). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. When the body is unable to balance heat gain, its temperature elevates, which may induce thermal illnesses.

Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
