Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in El Campo, is another warm month, with an average temperature varying between 85.3°F (29.6°C) and 69.1°F (20.6°C).

Temperature

El Campo's weather in May presents a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C). In the month of May, the average temperature dips to a pleasant 69.1°F (20.6°C) during the night.

Heat index

The average heat index in May is estimated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. 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.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
