Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival brings a modest temperature shift, moving from 76.1°F (24.5°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.6°F (29.2°C). Throughout May, Saline registers a consistent average low-temperature of 63.3°F (17.4°C).Heat index
In May, the average heat index is evaluated at a tropical 93.2°F (34°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. 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 particularly important for children. Young ones regularly neglect the requirement for rest and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late stage of dehydration - so, it is necessary to keep hydrated, particularly during extended periods of physical exertion.
