Weather in May
Temperature
With the advent of May, Lake Helen experiences an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 85.1°F (29.5°C), mirroring a close resemblance to the previous month. An average nighttime temperature of 68.9°F (20.5°C) is noted in Lake Helen during the month of May.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is appraised at a torrid 95°F (35°C). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. When exposed to the direct sun, the heat index may augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The individual's impression of temperature can be shaped by additional aspects such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Undertake protective measures and comply with sun safety rules. Shielding against skin and eye damage is essential. Minimize exposure to direct sunlight and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, but remember that shade structures may not offer complete protection. Wearing sunglasses with both UVA and UVB protection effectively reduces sun-induced eye damage.
