Weather in October
Temperature
The transition into October shows a subtle variation to a still tropical 30.5°C (86.9°F) from September's 31.8°C (89.2°F) in the average high-temperature. Throughout the month of October, Nyangwe witnesses an average temperature of 20.3°C (68.5°F).Heat index
In October, the average heat index is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 40°C (104°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. Being under direct sunshine can magnify the heat experience, possibly pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The body's natural response to excessive warmth is perspiration, as it allows for cooling through sweat evaporation. Relative humidity in excess curtails evaporation, therefore reducing heat dissipation from the body, leading to feelings of excess heat. When body heat isn't effectively managed, risks of dehydration and overheating amplify.

A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unprotected exposure to Sun's UV rays for the ordinary person.Note: The maximum daily UV index of 6 in October interprets into the following recommendations:
Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes.
