Weather in May
Temperature
Sweetwater's weather in May shows a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving slightly up from April's 79.7°F (26.5°C) to a still moderately hot 85.8°F (29.9°C). Sweetwater, after an intense day, registers a significant cooling to an average low-temperature of 64°F (17.8°C) throughout May.Heat index
May's heat index is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). Unrelenting activity during exposure could cause fatigue and potentially lead to heat cramps.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. 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. When exposed to direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to increase by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical for babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
