Temperature

With its high average temperature of 41.8°C (107.2°F) and a low of 29.2°C (84.6°F), May is regarded as the warmest month.

Heat index

The average heat index in May is estimated at a blazing hot 60°C (140°F). Warning: These weather conditions are viewed as overly hazardous, with approaching heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', shows a temperature sensation when both heat and moisture conditions are combined. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Sweat evaporation plays a crucial role in cooling the human body, a process enabled by perspiration. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Counter UV radiation's ill effects with clothing designed for sun safety and UV-resistant eyewear.
