Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is a warm month in Broughton, Georgia, with an average temperature ranging between max 80.8°F (27.1°C) and min 60.6°F (15.9°C).

Temperature

A minor escalation in the average high-temperature is seen with the onset of May, moving from an agreeable 72.9°F (22.7°C) in April to a warm 80.8°F (27.1°C). Broughton experiences a nighttime temperature average of 60.6°F (15.9°C) during May.

Heat index

Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
