Weather in October
Temperature
The coldest temperatures occur during October, when averages reach a peak of 28.9°C (84°F) and a low of 21.2°C (70.2°F).Heat index
In October, the heat index is computed to be a very hot 36°C (96.8°F). Ensure additional precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could occur from sustained activity.One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. Heat index values may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees when exposed to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The effect is personal, with varied weather perceptions among individuals due to differences in body mass, stature, and physical activity. It is noteworthy that being in direct sunlight can enhance the weather's impact, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
When faced with excessive heat, the human body begins to perspire, utilizing the cooling benefits of sweat evaporation. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. With body temperatures on the rise, inefficient heat shedding can lead to dehydration and its associated complications.
