Nicolás Bravo sees its peak of temperatures during May and August, with an average high-temperature of 31.8°C (89.2°F).

Heat index

In May, the average heat index is computed to be an extremely hot 42°C (107.6°F). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.
Regarding the heat index, one should be aware it's determined by shaded settings and mild winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is a value derived by merging air temperature with the humidity to convey how the climate feels. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. One must note that being under the direct sun can escalate the heat's effects, with the heat index possibly rising by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. When the relative humidity is high, the evaporation rate is reduced. The warmth is removed from the body at a lower rate, causing the body to retain more heat than it would in dry air. As the body gains more heat than it can dissipate, there's a risk of increasing temperatures and resultant overheating.

Note: The UV index of 7 during May translates into the following guidance:
Deter overexposure. Protecting against the sun's effects is essential. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its strongest, limit direct exposure to the Sun and note that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Limit sun-induced ocular harm with sunglasses that feature UVA and UVB filtration.
