Weather in May
Temperature
The start of May is characterized by a subtle increase in the average high-temperature, transitioning from a moderately hot 80.2°F (26.8°C) in April to a tropical 86.2°F (30.1°C). Uptonville sees an average low-temperature of 65.5°F (18.6°C) during May.Heat index
In May, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 96.8°F (36°C). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.Be informed that the heat index values are oriented around shady conditions and gentle breezes. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. A person's impression of weather can be shaped by several aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and levels of physical activity. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
