Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in Kessler, Louisiana, with an average temperature varying between 66.2°F (19°C) and 84.7°F (29.3°C).

Temperature

May's onset brings a minor rise in the average high-temperature, moving from 78.6°F (25.9°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C). In the month of May, Kessler witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 66.2°F (19°C).

Heat index

During May, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Do note, being directly under sun rays can amplify the heat you feel, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
