Temperature

As Barney, Georgia, transitions into May, the average high-temperature is observed to slightly rise from a warm 78.3°F (25.7°C) in April to a still moderately hot 84.7°F (29.3°C). During May, Barney observes a consistent average nighttime temperature of 65.1°F (18.4°C).

Heat index

Metrics for the heat index primarily focus on shaded spots and light wind conditions. The heat index has the possibility to be enhanced by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when there is direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
