Weather in May

The last month of the spring, May, is another warm month in Clem, Mississippi, with an average temperature ranging between max 83.7°F (28.7°C) and min 62.8°F (17.1°C).

Temperature

With the start of May, the average high-temperature marginally shifts from April's 76.8°F (24.9°C) to a still warm 83.7°F (28.7°C). In the month of May, the temperature generally rests at an average low of 62.8°F (17.1°C).

Heat index

May's mean heat index is calculated to be a tropical 91.4°F (33°C). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. It is essential to be conscious of the fact that direct sunlight can intensify the felt heat, leading to an elevation in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.

Note: A maximum high UV index of 6 in May translates into the following recommendations:
Incorporate safeguards and honour sun safety principles. Protection from skin and eye damage is obligatory. Attempt to stay under shade and limit exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Remember, devices such as parasols or canopies might not provide complete sun protection. Fend off the sun's harsh rays with appropriate clothing, a wide-brim hat, and UV-protective sunglasses.
