Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in Minooka, Alabama, with an average temperature fluctuating between 60.8°F (16°C) and 81.5°F (27.5°C).

Temperature

May's onset witnesses a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from 74.1°F (23.4°C) in April to a still moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C). During May, the temperature is averaged to a low of 60.8°F (16°C) at night.

Heat index

May's heat index is estimated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). Constant exposure and activity lead to possible fatigue. Prolonged exercise may result in heat cramps.
Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. This effect is personal, influenced by the individual's physical activity and heat sensitivity, shaped by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
