October weather forecastKeshod, India

Weather in October

The first month of the post-monsoon autumn, October, is also a hot month in Keshod, India, with an average temperature ranging between min 25.4°C (77.7°F) and max 34.4°C (93.9°F).

Temperature

October's arrival signals a subtle increase in average high-temperatures, moving from September's 30.5°C (86.9°F) to a still hot 34.4°C (93.9°F). During the nights in October, Keshod observes an average low-temperature of 25.4°C (77.7°F).

Heat index

For most parts of October, the heat index is estimated at a blistering 41°C (105.8°F). Exercise more precautions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are potential risks. Continuous activity could precipitate heatstroke.
Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
Perspiration is essential for the human body; it facilitates cooling through the process of sweat evaporation. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.

Note: An average maximum UV index of 7 in October leads to these recommendations:
Escape overexposure. People with light skin may incur burns in fewer than 20 minutes. Seek shade and minimize exposure to direct Sun in a period between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when UV radiation is most intense; keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not provide perfect sun protection. Clothes that are both tight-knit and comfortably loose are prime choices for sun protection.
