Weather in October

With a more definitive retreat of monsoon rains, October in Manila is marked by a significant reduction in precipitation. There's an appreciable ascent in the average hours of sunshine from September, reinstating clear skies and bright sunny days. Despite the diminished rainfall, humidity retains its high level, keeping the surroundings lush and vibrant. While October is warmer and drier than September, the weather begins to cool slightly as November approaches. October carries a revitalizing ambiance with a mild temperature range and a decline in rain showers.

With October's arrival, Manila's weather records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 30.7°C, marking little difference from September's 30.5°C. Throughout the month of October, Manila reports a steady low-temperature average of 24.9°C.

Heat index

The heat index value during October is appraised at an extremely hot 40°C. Take more caution, heat exhaustion and heat cramps may occur. Long-lasting activity may cause heatstroke.
The standards for the heat index are set for locations in shade and under light breezes. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Elements such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact one's weather perception. Given direct exposure to sunlight, one might experience a rise in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are largely significant for babies and toddlers. 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.
The human body keeps its cool primarily through perspiration, as this process enables sweat to evaporate, taking away the excess heat. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
