During October, Vendu Leidi observes a subtle ascent to a still hot 32.5°C (90.5°F) from September's 30°C (86°F) in the average high-temperature. Throughout the month of October, Vendu Leidi expects an average low of 23.3°C (73.9°F).

Heat index

During October, the heat index is computed to be a burning hot 48°C (118.4°F). Be prepared: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Continued activity may lead to heatstroke.
Data suggests that the heat index is set for environments in shade and with a light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. Always consider that direct sunlight exposure might heighten the heat's effects, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. Kids generally face higher risks than adults as they sweat less. Along with their large skin surface compared to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, their vulnerability is increased.
To achieve cooling, the human body employs perspiration, relying on the subsequent evaporation of sweat. Under high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, perspiration is limited, and the perception of heat is increased. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Note: The daily high UV index of 7 during October translates into the following recommendations:
Sidestep overexposure. Individuals with fair complexions risk burning in fewer than 20 minutes. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., the period of highest UV radiation. Remember, however, that not all shade structures offer full protection. On days when the sun blazes, arm yourself with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB radiation.
