October weather forecast
Sarisha, India

The first month of the post-monsoon autumn, October, is also a hot month in Sarisha, India, with an average temperature varying between 24°C (75.2°F) and 31.5°C (88.7°F).

Temperature

The onset of October notes an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.5°C (88.7°F), subtly shifted from September's 31.9°C (89.4°F). Nighttime temperature lowers to an average of 24°C (75.2°F) in October.

Heat index

October's mean heat index is computed to be a blistering 40°C (104°F). Extra precautions are necessary, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible outcomes. Extended activity could lead to heatstroke.
Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'real feel', is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity to determine the human-perceived temperature equivalent. Depending on the activity and the individual's heat perception, which may vary due to factors including wind, clothing, and metabolic variations, this effect remains subjective. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. In general, children are more at risk than adults because they sweat less. Furthermore, the large skin surface compared to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their actions contribute to this vulnerability.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Embrace precautions and observe sun safety norms. Evasion of sunburn is a necessity. Avoid direct exposure to the Sun between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, noting that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer complete sun protection. A hat with a broad brim is indispensable, filtering out up to half of UV rays.
