Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Pollock, is another warm month, with an average temperature ranging between min 64.6°F (18.1°C) and max 84.7°F (29.3°C).

Temperature

May's arrival coincides with a subtle temperature rise, moving from April's 76.6°F (24.8°C) to a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C). Pollock's nighttime temperature in May falls to an average of 64.6°F (18.1°C).

Heat index

In May, the average heat index is estimated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.
Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Kids frequently ignore the importance of taking a break and rehydrating. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during long-lasting physical activities.
To offset high temperatures, the human body releases sweat which, upon evaporation, cools it down. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.
