It can be: Working outside in that type of heat can be dangerous for anyone. With diabetes you need to make sure that your sugars are well controlled, that you are drinking lots of fluids and that you are eating regularly. If you feel faint or dizzy, get to a cool place and check your sugar. Drinking water is the best way to stay safe in the heat.
