Weather in May
Temperature
Rutledge in May denotes a subtle temperature transition, adjusting from an average high of a pleasant 72.9°F (22.7°C) in April to a moderately hot 80.8°F (27.1°C). During the month of May, an average temperature of 60.6°F (15.9°C) is noted during the nights.Heat index
May's mean heat index is computed to be 84.2°F (29°C). Enduring exposure and ongoing activity could cause a sense of fatigue and subsequent heat cramps.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', melds the effects of warmth and moisture to generate a feeling of heat. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
