Weather in May
Temperature
Amelia's May weather indicates a minor increase in high-temperatures, edging from April's moderately hot 77.4°F (25.2°C) to a still warm 83.3°F (28.5°C). Throughout the nights in May, an average low-temperature of 69.1°F (20.6°C) is noted in Amelia.Heat index
For May, the heat index is calculated to be a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. An exposure to direct sunlight may lift the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
