Heat index

Throughout May, the heat index is calculated to be a burning hot 52°C (125.6°F). On guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are predicted. Heatstroke is a potential hazard with continuous physical effort.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
Perspiring is the body's way of cooling down, particularly by allowing sweat to evaporate and take the heat with it. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Accumulating heat beyond the body's cooling measures leads to rising temperatures and potential ailments.

Remember, however, that not all shade structures provide full sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
