With the onset of May, the average high-temperature registers at a still very hot 38.5°C (101.3°F), subtly different from April's 39.6°C (103.3°F). The nighttime temperature shows a significant divergence from the daytime highs, averaging at a moderately hot 26.3°C (79.3°F) in May.

Heat index

May's mean heat index is estimated at a burning hot 47°C (116.6°F). Watchful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are predicted. Continued exertion could lead to heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. When under direct sunshine, the heat index may be elevated by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', takes into account both air temperature and humidity to illustrate what people actually feel. This impact is subjective, influenced by the person's physical activity and individual heat perception, affected by factors including wind, attire, and metabolic differences. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children frequently do not understand the need for recuperation and hydration. Thirst, being a late manifestation of dehydration, underlines the need to hydrate frequently, especially when engaging in prolonged physical exercises.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
