Weather in May
Temperature
Duplessis observes a slight ascent in average high-temperatures during May, adjusting from 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C). During May, Duplessis experiences an average low-temperature of 66°F (18.9°C) at night.Heat index
The heat index for May is computed to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Undertake extra safety actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke may result from lengthy activity.In terms of the heat index, values are set with light wind and shade conditions in mind. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. 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 remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young ones often underestimate the need for rest and rehydration. Thirst appears late in dehydration - hence, it is important to keep hydrated, particularly during prolonged physical activities.
As a reaction to high temperatures, the human body begins to perspire, using the evaporation of sweat to lower its temperature. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.

Fend off overexposure. Sun protection is vital. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
