Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May introduces a minor uplift in high-temperatures, adjusting from a moderately hot 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still warm 84.7°F (29.3°C). During May, Saint Amant's temperature averages to a comfortable 66°F (18.9°C) at night.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is estimated at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Incorporate special precautions, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is substantial. Sustained activity could cause heatstroke.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children regularly disregard the necessity to rest and replenish fluids. Thirst is a late symptom of dehydration - thus, maintaining hydration, particularly during long-lasting physical activities, is essential.
To cool down, the human body relies on perspiration, a process where excessive heat is eliminated as sweat evaporates. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Rising body temperatures resulting from an imbalance in heat absorption can lead to potential thermal issues.
