Weather in October
Temperature
The lowest level of Ngoumbi's temperatures is noted during June and October, averaging a high-temperature of 30.1°C (86.2°F).Heat index
In October, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 40°C (104°F). Incorporate additional preventive steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. 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 primarily vital for children. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
By perspiring, the human body can shed its excessive warmth since evaporated sweat cools it off. Excessive relative humidity disturbs the body's typical cooling process by reducing evaporation, leading to a decrease in body cooling rate and an increase in the sensation of warmth. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.

March, May through November, with an average maximum UV index of 6, are months with the lowest UV index. A UV Index estimate of 6 to 7 represents a high threat to health from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the average person.Note: The average daily UV index of 6 in October transforms into the following instructions:
Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Stay in the shade and limit sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer full protection. Counter UV radiation's ill effects with clothing designed for sun safety and UV-resistant eyewear.
