The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in McWer, Alabama, with an average temperature varying between 85.5°F (29.7°C) and 62.6°F (17°C).

Temperature

With the start of May, the average high-temperature marginally shifts from April's warm 78.3°F (25.7°C) to a still moderately hot 85.5°F (29.7°C). McWer registers a substantial downturn from daytime peaks throughout May nights, with an average low-temperature of 62.6°F (17°C).

Heat index

Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The influence of weather can be personal, changing with an individual's body mass, height, and level of physical exertion. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
Perspiration is the body's default response to elevated temperatures, as it promotes the evaporation of sweat to achieve cooling. When relative humidity increases, the body's capacity to evaporate heat decreases, leading to a heightened sense of warmth. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
