Weather in May

May, the last month of the spring in Evans, is also a moderately hot month, with temperature in the range of an average high of 85.3°F (29.6°C) and an average low of 65.5°F (18.6°C).

Temperature

The shift from April to May introduces a subtle increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a warm 77.7°F (25.4°C) to a still moderately hot 85.3°F (29.6°C). Evans, in May, witnesses an average low-temperature of 65.5°F (18.6°C).

Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 95°F (35°C). More protective measures are required - heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Heatstroke may follow lengthy activity.
Research indicates the heat index considers values in shaded locales and with light winds. Being exposed to direct sunshine might trigger a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is a measure that combines air temperature and relative humidity into a single value that indicates how hot the weather feels. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
The process of perspiration is vital for the human body to get rid of excess warmth by allowing sweat to evaporate. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.

Apply measures and align with sun safety principles. Safeguarding against skin and eye injury is pivotal. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. A wide-brimmed hat provides unparalleled sun protection for sensitive areas like the eyes, ears, and neck.
