Weather in May
Temperature
The onset of May introduces a subtle rise in the average high-temperature, nudging from a warm 73.6°F (23.1°C) in April to a still moderately hot 81.9°F (27.7°C). Sparkman throughout May, experiences an average nighttime temperature of 61.3°F (16.3°C).Heat index
For most parts of May, the heat index is computed to be a hot 87.8°F (31°C). One might feel worn out with persistent exposure and activity, resulting in heat cramps.Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Young individuals usually face more risks than adults due to their lower sweat production. Their large skin surface area relative to their tiny bodies and high heat production from their activities adds to their risk.
