Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival sees a mild rise in the average high-temperature, transitioning from April's moderately hot 78.4°F (25.8°C) to a still warm 85.1°F (29.5°C). Saucier experiences an average low-temperature of 65.1°F (18.4°C) in the month of May.Heat index
For May, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 95°F (35°C). Implement more safety precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may happen. Persistent activity could induce heatstroke.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct sunshine exposure could raise heat index values by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
