Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in White Oak Run, Louisiana, with an average temperature varying between 85.5°F (29.7°C) and 65.5°F (18.6°C).

Temperature

May's onset is marked by a subtle temperature increase, moving from a moderately hot 78.6°F (25.9°C) in April to a still warm 85.5°F (29.7°C). In the month of May, the average low-temperature usually rests at a comfortable 65.5°F (18.6°C).

Heat index

The heat index in May is evaluated at a very hot 96.8°F (36°C). Additional precautions are required to avert heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity may culminate in heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Direct sunlight can cause a surge in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', binds temperature metrics with humidity values to give a sense of the actual warmth. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Remember, direct sunlight exposure can heighten the heat impact and might increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
When it comes to cooling down, the human body's primary method is through perspiration, making use of sweat evaporation to eliminate excess heat. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.
