Weather in October

Heatstroke is a serious risk with continued exertion.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', gives an indication of how one might feel in terms of heat after considering humidity. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially vital to children. Children frequently underestimate the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is vital to stay hydrated, particularly during lengthy physical exercises.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Overheating and dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
