Temperature

May tends to be the warmest month, with temperatures averaging a daily high of 33.8°C (92.8°F) and a low of 22.5°C (72.5°F).

Heat index

For most parts of May, the heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. The direct sun can potentially cause the heat index to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', combines both the air temperature and the humidity level to give a perceived human temperature. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Youngsters frequently overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is an advanced sign of dehydration - thereby highlighting the importance of keeping hydrated, particularly during long physical activities.
The body's self-cooling mechanism is rooted in perspiration, where evaporating sweat cools down excessive warmth. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

Adopt measures and apply sun safety strategies. Shielding from skin and eye damage is necessary. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. A wide-brimmed hat provides unparalleled sun protection for sensitive areas like the eyes, ears, and neck.
