Weather in October
Temperature
The transition from September to October sees average high-temperatures adjusting to a still tropical 31.7°C (89.1°F), from a not significantly different 32.9°C (91.2°F). Nighttime temperatures hover around an average low of 26.3°C (79.3°F) in October.Heat index
The average heat index in October is estimated at a blistering 40°C (104°F). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.Heat index guidelines indicate values are for light wind scenarios and shaded regions. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. An individual's perception of weather can be swayed by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and their level of physical exertion. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Children often overlook the necessity for resting and fluid replenishment. Thirst is a late sign of dehydration - thus, it is critical to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. With high air temperature and humidity (high heat index) conditions, sweat production is restricted, leading to an amplified perception of heat. Excessive heat gain, when not shed effectively by the body, can result in increasing body temperatures and related hazards.

Refrain from overexposure. Fair-skinned individuals could burn in under 20 minutes. Remember that UV radiation from the Sun is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to limit direct sun exposure during this time. Sunglasses that guard against UVA and UVB rays are pivotal in minimizing sun-induced ocular damage.
