October weather forecast
Maungdaw, Myanmar

October, the same as September, is another warm autumn month in Maungdaw, Myanmar, with an average temperature varying between 25.5°C (77.9°F) and 29.4°C (84.9°F).

Temperature

During October, Maungdaw observes a subtle ascent to a still moderately hot 29.4°C (84.9°F) from September's 29.8°C (85.6°F) in the average high-temperature. October nights witness a mild cool down to an average low of 25.5°C (77.9°F).

Heat index

October's heat index is appraised at a torrid 36°C (96.8°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.
One should be cognizant that the heat index values are tailored for shaded spots and mild winds. Direct sunlight exposure may result in a rise of the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. 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 hold particular significance for children. Kids are usually in more danger than grown-ups as they tend to sweat less. Plus, their bigger skin surface in relation to their small frames and increased heat generation due to their activity level make them more susceptible.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. With an abundance of moisture present in the air, the process of evaporation becomes less effective, and the body fails to cool down as it should, leading to the sensation of overheating. Inadequate heat shedding in the face of rising body temperatures hints at potential dehydration risks.

Note: An average UV index of 6 in October transforms into this advice:
Dodge overexposure. Fair-skinned people can get singed in less than 20 minutes. Limit your direct sun exposure, especially between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is strongest. Shade structures might not provide complete sun protection. By wearing a generously brimmed hat, you can cut UV radiation exposure significantly.
