May, the last month of the spring in Al Hijfar, is another tropical month, with an average temperature fluctuating between 30.5°C (86.9°F) and 34.2°C (93.6°F).

Heat index

It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a numerical representation of warmth when taking temperature and moisture levels into account. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. High relative humidity reduces the evaporation rate, resulting in a lower heat removal rate from the body, causing the perception of being overheated. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.
