Temperature

May, with average temperatures reaching a high of 32.3°C (90.1°F) and a low of 21.9°C (71.4°F), is the warmest month.

Heat index

May's average heat index is estimated at a blisteringly hot 43°C (109.4°F). Forewarned: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are anticipated. Ongoing physical activity increases the likelihood of heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Awareness is key; direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. Increasing body temperatures can be a precursor to dehydration if the body can't shed the extra heat.

Steer clear of overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals can be scorched in less than 20 minutes. The Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this period. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades. Alert! The Sun's UV rays are heightened by the reflection of sand and water.
