Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in Wagarville, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 85.6°F (29.8°C) and 63°F (17.2°C).

Temperature

The shift into May is accompanied by a modest temperature increase, with the average high-temperature edging up from 78.4°F (25.8°C) in April to a still moderately hot 85.6°F (29.8°C). Wagarville's daily high temperature significantly diverges from the consistently recorded temperature low averaging an enjoyable 63°F (17.2°C) in May.

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a torrid 95°F (35°C). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
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 'feels like', is the result of factoring in humidity to the air temperature, indicating perceived warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
