Brief Answer:
Heat and dehydration

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Because of excessive variation in the temperature in the environment there can be strong reaction of the blood capillaries in the nose which are exposed to this kind of high variable temperature. They leak sometimes. You should not worry. Put pressure with pinch of the nose tip and stay till the blood stops oozing.

You can see a doctor ENT if there is any opened blood vessels that can be cauterized to prevent further leaks.

Also hydration is a key issue, you should have a lot of decaffeinated beverages during this temperature like buttermilk, water, coconut water, fruit juices.

all the best.
