Weather in May

With the start of May, the average high-temperature marginally shifts from April's agreeable 72.9°F (22.7°C) to a warm 80.6°F (27°C). Cahaba Crest, in May, witnesses an average low-temperature of 60.4°F (15.8°C).Heat index
For May, the heat index is evaluated at 84.2°F (29°C). When exposure and activity are sustained, they could induce fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. 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 extremely significant for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
