Weather in October
Temperature
The commencement of October sees a minor shift in the average high-temperature, moving from 31.7°C (89.1°F) in September to a still hot 34.7°C (94.5°F). In the month of October, the temperature generally rests at an average low of 23.5°C (74.3°F).Heat index
During October, the heat index is calculated to be a blazing hot 52°C (125.6°F). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.From a standpoint of the heat index, values pertain to shaded conditions and mild breezes. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important 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.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. A higher relative humidity affects normal body cooling by reducing the evaporation rate, subsequently lowering the rate at which the body cools and increasing the perception of heat. The body faces dehydration threats when its cooling efforts are outpaced by excessive heat gain.
