Weather in May
Temperature
The arrival of May brings a soft temperature shift, with the average high-temperature nudging from 73.4°F (23°C) in April to a still moderately hot 81°F (27.2°C). Nighttime temperatures hover around an average low of 61.2°F (16.2°C) in May.Heat index
May's average heat index is calculated to be a hot 86°F (30°C). Remaining active during long-lasting exposure could cause fatigue, leading to heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
