Weather in May
Temperature
Newton's weather shows a minor temperature rise with the arrival of May, moving from 78.3°F (25.7°C) in April to a still warm 85.8°F (29.9°C). May nights in Newton cool down to an average low-temperature of 65.5°F (18.6°C).Heat index
In May, the average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. The heat index might be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular significance for children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.
