Weather in May
Temperature
May's arrival brings a modest temperature shift, moving from a moderately hot 74.7°F (23.7°C) in April to a still warm 81.5°F (27.5°C). During the month of May, Dresden anticipates a mean low-temperature of 64.4°F (18°C).Heat index
The heat index for May is calculated to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). If one continues to be active during enduring exposure, it could result in fatigue and heat cramps.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
