Weather in October

October, like September, in Mourilyan, Australia, is a moderately hot spring month, with an average temperature varying between 27.3°C (81.1°F) and 21.1°C (70°F).

Temperature

The arrival of October coincides with an average high-temperature of a still warm 27.3°C (81.1°F), indicating a minimal shift from September's 25.8°C (78.4°F). Mourilyan observes an average low-temperature of 21.1°C (70°F) during October.

Heat index

Throughout October, the heat index is computed to be a hot 30°C (86°F). Continuing activity during long-lasting exposure might induce tiredness and result in heat cramps.
When considering the heat index, it's pivotal to note it is for shade and mild wind conditions. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The effect is experienced differently by individuals, hinging on unique characteristics such as body mass, stature, and level of activity. Direct exposure to the sun's rays can enhance the felt temperature, increasing the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.

Humidity

The months with the lowest humidity are September and October, with an average relative humidity of 74%.

Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide full protection.
