Weather in May
Temperature
With the onset of May, Rusk's average high-temperature sees a modest rise, moving from April's warm 76.1°F (24.5°C) to a still moderately hot 83.8°F (28.8°C). Nighttime temperatures hover around an average low of 63.1°F (17.3°C) in May.Heat index

Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
