Weather in May
Temperature
The shift from April to May sees a slight increase in the average high-temperature, transitioning from a moderately hot 82.2°F (27.9°C) to a hot 88°F (31.1°C). Sanderson's average nighttime temperature descends significantly from the day's peak in May, settling at a comfortable 66.2°F (19°C).Heat index
For May, the heat index is computed to be a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). Exposure and extended activity could potentially cause a state of fatigue and lead to heat cramps.Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is an estimation of the warmth sensation when considering humidity levels. The influence of weather is personal, with varied individuals experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical exertion levels. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
