Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is a moderately hot month in Kimberley, Arkansas, with an average temperature varying between 61°F (16.1°C) and 80.6°F (27°C).

Temperature

The shift into May brings a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from an agreeable 72.1°F (22.3°C) in April to a moderately hot 80.6°F (27°C). An average nighttime temperature of 61°F (16.1°C) is noted during the month of May.

Heat index

The heat index in May is evaluated at 84.2°F (29°C). If one sustains activity during exposure, it could lead to a sense of fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', offers an insight into how hot it feels when we factor in moisture content. 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. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
