Weather in May
Temperature
The coming of May brings a minor shift in Sandersville's weather, with average high-temperatures adjusting from April's 74.1°F (23.4°C) to a still moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C). During May, Sandersville's temperature averages to a comfortable 62.8°F (17.1°C) at night.Heat index
May's heat index is evaluated at a tropical 86°F (30°C). If one persists in activity during exposure, it could induce weariness and subsequently, heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
