Weather in May
Temperature
A minor adjustment in Freshwater Pond's average high-temperature is noted with the start of May, touching a still warm 27.3°C (81.1°F) from April's 26.5°C (79.7°F). Freshwater Pond registers an average low-temperature of 26°C (78.8°F) throughout May, a modest decrease from its daytime highs.Heat index
The heat index value during May is calculated to be a hot 30°C (86°F). With ongoing exposure and activity, one might experience weariness, and heat cramps could ensue.Heat index specifics point out values are for conditions of shade and a slight breeze. 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 'apparent temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
