Weather in May
Temperature
Okolona in May experiences a slight uptick in the average high-temperature, adjusting from April's agreeable 72.5°F (22.5°C) to a moderately hot 81°F (27.2°C). Okolona witnesses a consistent average low-temperature of 61.7°F (16.5°C) throughout May.Heat index
May's mean heat index is computed to be a tropical 86°F (30°C). If one remains active during constant exposure, it might cause exhaustion and heat cramps.When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', gives a temperature feeling by integrating air temperature and humidity. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
