Weather in October

October, like September, in Bagbele, Democratic Republic of Congo, is a moderately hot autumn month, with an average temperature varying between 19.5°C (67.1°F) and 29.3°C (84.7°F).

The shift to October signals an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.3°C (84.7°F), subtly varied from September's 29°C (84.2°F). Bagbele, during October, witnesses an average low-temperature of 19.5°C (67.1°F).

Heat index

For most parts of October, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. With exposure to direct sunshine, the heat index could climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', reflects the blend of air temperature and relative humidity to give a temperature impression. The influence of weather is personal, with a diverse population experiencing it differently due to differences in body mass, stature, and degree of activity. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
In response to overheating, the human body perspires to cool down, mainly through the evaporation of sweat. In the presence of high relative humidity, the evaporation rate diminishes, resulting in the body retaining more warmth compared to dry conditions. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
