Weather in October
Temperature
In Gatuncillo, October and November are characterised by the lowest temperatures, recording an average high of 28.7°C (83.7°F).Heat index
Throughout October, the heat index is appraised at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Take greater precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may be expected. Heatstroke could result from lengthy activity.Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is an amalgamation of air temperature and humidity to express the equivalent perceived temperature. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are quite important for children. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. In conditions of both high temperature and humidity (a high heat index), sweating is limited and the perception of heat is enhanced. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.
