Weather in May
Temperature
With the onset of May, Sweetwater's average high-temperature experiences a slight rise, moving from April's agreeable 72.1°F (22.3°C) to a moderately hot 80.8°F (27.1°C). An average low-temperature of 59.5°F (15.3°C) is recorded in the month of May.Heat index
During May, the heat index is calculated to be 82.4°F (28°C). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
