Weather in May
Temperature
With average high temperatures of 35.7°C (96.3°F) and lows of 28.2°C (82.8°F), May is the warmest month.Heat index
For May, the heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 53°C (127.4°F). Be alert: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is a threat with sustained physical activity.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. 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 are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
For the human body, perspiration is the go-to method to regulate temperature, using sweat's evaporation to dissipate warmth. During conditions of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's ability to perspire is inhibited, increasing the sensation of warmth. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.
