Weather in October
Temperature
October and November, when the average high-temperature reaches 29.2°C (84.6°F), are the warmest months.Heat index
October's average heat index is estimated at a sweltering 36°C (96.8°F). Implement additional cautionary measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could occur. Prolonged activity might induce heatstroke.Heat index evaluations are typically in the context of light winds and shaded environments. Direct sunlight can potentially boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is the outcome of merging air's temperature and its humidity metrics. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Young individuals are typically more threatened than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Also, the larger skin surface proportionate to their small bodies and the increased heat from their activities magnify their risk.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration, as evaporated sweat carries heat away from the body. When the air contains significant moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process decreases, preventing the body from cooling down effectively and creating a feeling of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.

Use measures and accept sun safety conventions. Guarding against skin and eye trauma is of high priority. The hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. have the most intense UV radiation. As much as possible, limit direct sun exposure during this period. For a sun-safe wardrobe, go for clothes that are tightly woven and generously sized. Heed this! UV intensity is much stronger when reflected off sand and water.
