Weather in May
Temperature
A gentle upsurge in temperatures occurs as April gives way to May, with average highs shifting from a warm 77.9°F (25.5°C) to a still moderately hot 85.6°F (29.8°C). An average low-temperature of 64.4°F (18°C) marks the month of May.Heat index
May's heat index is evaluated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Implement enhanced safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Sustained activity might result in heatstroke.It is important to note that the heat index values are for shaded areas and light wind scenarios. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', 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. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. In the presence of elevated relative humidity, the evaporation rate decreases. This reduction leads to increased body heat retention compared to conditions of dry air. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
