Weather in May
Temperature
May's onset witnesses a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from 74.7°F (23.7°C) in April to a still moderately hot 82.9°F (28.3°C). During the month of May, an average temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) is noted during the nights.Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Prolonged exposure and physical activity might induce exhaustion, potentially causing heat cramps.Observations indicate that the heat index values are for shady locations with light wind. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
