Weather in October
Temperature
As Boulougou transitions from September to October, the average high-temperatures adjust to a sweltering 36.4°C (97.5°F), nearly the same as the previous 33.5°C (92.3°F). During the month of October, Boulougou experiences a steady low-temperature average of 25.1°C (77.2°F).Heat index
October's average heat index is calculated to be a blistering 42°C (107.6°F). Undertake additional precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. The heat index could experience an increase of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youths are typically more endangered than adults since they usually sweat less. Their larger skin surface concerning their smaller bodies and higher heat production due to activity further adds to their vulnerability.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Heat-related complications, like dehydration, can manifest if the body's heat gain exceeds its dissipation capacity.
