Weather in October
Temperature
The warmest month is October, with an average high-temperature of 29°C (84.2°F) and an average low-temperature of 17.6°C (63.7°F).Heat index
October's mean heat index is evaluated at a tropical 30°C (86°F). If exposure and activity persist, fatigue could ensue, possibly leading to heat cramps.Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air 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. 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 hold particular significance for children. Younglings are generally more in peril than adults due to their reduced perspiration. Coupled with a larger skin surface relative to their tiny bodies and greater heat production because of their activity, they become more at risk.
