Weather in October
Temperature
The beginning of October records an average high-temperature of a hot 30.3°C (86.5°F), marking a negligible difference from September's 28.5°C (83.3°F). During October's nights, Agbara notes a minor temperature decline, reaching an average of 25.5°C (77.9°F).Heat index
October's average heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 38°C (100.4°F). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.In the scope of the heat index, its values resonate with shade and light wind conditions. Direct exposure to sunlight could raise the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is calculated by taking the relative humidity value for a specific location and factoring it into the air temperature reading. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are essentially critical for children. Children often fail to understand the importance of rest and rehydration. Thirst is a late manifestation of dehydration - hence, it is crucial to stay hydrated, especially during ongoing physical activities.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. Heat absorption that surpasses the body's shedding capability can lead to overheating and varying levels of dehydration.

Sunshine
In October, the average sunshine is 8h.UV index
January through June, September through December, with an average maximum UV index of 7, are months with the highest UV index. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for average individuals.Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 7 during October translates into the following directions:
Avert overexposure. Light-skinned people might experience burning in less than 20 minutes. Remember that the sun's UV radiation is strongest between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure during these hours. For minimizing sun-related eye damage, always choose sunglasses with UVA and UVB coverage.
