Heat index

In October, the average heat index is calculated to be a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Exercise increased caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential hazards. Continuous activity could lead to heatstroke.
Heat index readings emphasize conditions of light breezes and shaded spots. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The impact of weather is personal, differing among a variety of people based on differences in body mass, height, and the level of physical exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. Temperature imbalances caused by excessive heat retention can trigger heat-related maladies.

January through December, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index in Capolo. A UV Index reading of 6 to 7 represents a high health vulnerability from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the average person.
Note: A typical high UV index of 6 in October suggests the following recommendations:
Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. A wide-brimmed hat is a shield, deflecting up to 50% of harmful UV radiation from eyes.
