Weather in May
Temperature
A soft shift in the average high-temperature is noticeable in May, transitioning from a moderately hot 82.6°F (28.1°C) in April to a hot 88°F (31.1°C). Westdale's nights in May cool down to an average low-temperature of 70.3°F (21.3°C).Heat index
During May, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 102.2°F (39°C). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.Understand that the heat index values take into account shaded locations 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 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. This effect is personal, shaped by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, influenced by factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Kids frequently fail to realize the necessity for resting and hydrating. Thirst is an advanced indication of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, especially during extended physical activities, becomes essential.
Perspiring is a crucial mechanism for the human body, allowing it to release excessive warmth through evaporating sweat. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
