October weather forecast
Daban, Mali

October witnesses a significant decline in rainfall, sliding down to 23mm (0.91"), indicating the end of the wet season in Daban, Mali. The transition away from the monsoon climate leads to a decrease in humidity levels as well. The temperatures hover around moderate levels, encapsulating the warmth of the tropical climate. Reduction in cloud cover implies an increase in sunshine hours, gradually welcoming the onset of the dry period. The change in weather patterns is quite apparent in this transition phase.

Heat index

In October, the heat index is calculated to be a scorching 43°C (109.4°F). Be careful: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Heatstroke may result from extended activity.
Be aware that heat index ratings are designed for shaded locations and minor breezes. Heat index values might soar by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with exposure to direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. Direct sun rays can make one feel hotter, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Typically, children face more danger than adults as they usually perspire less. Their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and increased heat output from their activities enhance their risk.
When temperatures rise, the human body turns to perspiration, using the cooling power of evaporating sweat. When the level of relative humidity is elevated, evaporation diminishes, causing more warmth to be retained in the body than in dry air. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.
