Temperature

October is marked by an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.7°C (90.9°F), almost identical to the preceding month. October's average low-temperature reading settles at a warm 23.2°C (73.8°F).

Heat index

October's mean heat index is computed to be a blisteringly hot 41°C (105.8°F). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', evaluates the perceived heat by adding the effect of moisture in the air. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Understand that direct sun rays can influence the weather's impact, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. 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.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. 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. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.

Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to limit direct exposure to the Sun during this period. To mitigate harm from sun exposure, pick sunglasses offering UVA and UVB defense.
