Weather in May
Temperature
With the onset of May, Edison experiences a subtle temperature shift, with the average high-temperature moving from 77°F (25°C) in April to a still moderately hot 83.8°F (28.8°C). In Edison, May is marked by an average low-temperature of 64.9°F (18.3°C).Heat index
In May, the heat index is estimated at a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Ongoing exposure and activity could lead to a state of exhaustion, with a chance of heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. 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.
Humidity
In May, the average relative humidity is 70%.Rainfall
In May, the rain falls for 14.1 days. Throughout May, 2.64" (67mm) of precipitation is accumulated. In Edison, during the entire year, the rain falls for 163.9 days and collects up to 31.73" (806mm) of precipitation.Snowfall

In Edison, Georgia, the average length of the day in May is 13h and 46min.On the first day of May, sunrise is at 6:52 am and sunset at 8:19 pm. On the last day of the month, sunrise is at 6:34 am and sunset at 8:38 pm EDT.
Sunshine
In May, the average sunshine is 10.6h.UV index
The months with the highest UV index are May through August, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: In May, the maximum UV index of 7 transforms into these recommendations:
Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. The time between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. is when UV radiation is at its peak. Limit exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
