Weather in October
Temperature
As October arrives, a slight rise in the average high-temperature is observed, moving from a hot 32.9°C (91.2°F) in September to a sweltering 36.5°C (97.7°F). Throughout October, the temperature falls to an average low of 24.7°C (76.5°F).Heat index
October's mean heat index is estimated at a blistering 43°C (109.4°F). Take caution: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may be imminent with ongoing effort.Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', determines the feeling of heat when you account for the relative humidity. The impact of weather is individual, with diverse individuals experiencing it differently due to variations in body mass, height, and activity levels. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
In the face of high temperatures, the human body's reflex is to perspire, leveraging sweat evaporation for cooling. An increase in relative humidity retards evaporation, subsequently reducing the body's heat removal rate and leading to a sensation of being overly warm. Heat-related challenges, like dehydration, can be anticipated when body heat isn't managed effectively.

Emphasize protection. Neglecting it can lead to swift damage to the skin and eyes. To the best of your ability, limit your exposure to the sun between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
