The last month of the spring, May, is also a moderately hot month in The Parks, Louisiana, with an average temperature ranging between max 85.3°F (29.6°C) and min 66.4°F (19.1°C).

Temperature

The start of May brings a subtle shift in the average high-temperature, edging up from April's warm 78.4°F (25.8°C) to a still moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C). The Parks, during May, witnesses an average low-temperature of 66.4°F (19.1°C).

Heat index

The average heat index in May is calculated to be a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Incorporate additional preventive steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.
