Weather in May
Temperature
The onset of May brings a minor temperature shift, with the average high-temperature moving from 74.1°F (23.4°C) in April to a still warm 81.1°F (27.3°C). An average nighttime temperature of 63.5°F (17.5°C) is noted during the month of May.Heat index
May's mean heat index is estimated at a hot 86°F (30°C). If exposure and activity are sustained, they might cause a feeling of weariness, resulting in heat cramps.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations and mild winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a metric representing the sensation of warmth when air temperature and moisture come together. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important 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.
