Weather in May
Temperature
A subtle rise in the average high-temperature is observed during May, adjusting from 76.6°F (24.8°C) in April to a still warm 83.1°F (28.4°C). An average low-temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) is recorded during the nights in May in Douglas, Georgia.Heat index
May's heat index is estimated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If one endures exposure and continues to be active, it might result in tiredness and heat cramps.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. One's perception of temperature is subjective, varying based on their activity and individual heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variations. Keep in mind that direct sunshine exposure can amplify the weather's effects, possibly increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
