Weather in October
Temperature
The start of October marks an average high-temperature of a sweltering 35.8°C (96.4°F), hardly distinguishable from the conditions in September. Borroloola records a marked divergence from the day's high temperatures, with nights in October averaging at a pleasant 22.7°C (72.9°F).Heat index
For most parts of October, the heat index is appraised at an extremely hot 44°C (111.2°F). Observe: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke is on the horizon with prolonged exertion.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Direct exposure to sunshine could lead to a heat index increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Direct sunlight exposure should be noted as it has the potential to increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via 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. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

A UV Index of 8 to 10 symbolizes a very high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 8 during October translates into the following directions:
Protection is paramount; otherwise, swift harm can come to the skin and eyes. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation. Limit direct exposure to the Sun during these hours. For optimum UV protection, wear sun-resistant attire complemented with a hat and quality shades.
