Weather in May
Temperature
May showcases a minor temperature ascent, adjusting from April's 75.4°F (24.1°C) to a still warm 82.4°F (28°C). An average nighttime temperature of 64.8°F (18.2°C) is noted in Abbeville during the month of May.Heat index
In May, the average heat index is estimated at a tropical 87.8°F (31°C). If one stays active during extended exposure, it might induce fatigue and result in heat cramps.Remember that heat index calculations are made for conditions in the shade with light wind. Heat index values can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', joins air temperature with relative humidity to produce a temperature perception for humans. Additional elements including metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and attire have a role in shaping the individual's temperature perception. Direct sun rays have a notable impact on perceived temperature, which can raise the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial 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.
