Weather in October
Temperature
The start of October signals a slight increase in the average high-temperature, moving from a hot 34.4°C (93.9°F) in September to a torrid 37.9°C (100.2°F). Despite drastic daily temperature oscillations, Diouroule cools down to an average low-temperature of 25.5°C (77.9°F) in October.Heat index
In October, the average heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 50°C (122°F). Stay wary: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible. Heatstroke can ensue from extended effort.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. If directly exposed to the sun, the heat index could rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', gauges the sensation of temperature factoring in the air's moisture content. The influence of weather is personal, differing among individuals based on variations in body mass, stature, and the degree of physical exertion. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Evaporation of sweat is the main factor behind the cooling effect of perspiration in the human body. Elevated relative humidity diminishes evaporation, thereby reducing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a feeling of being too warm. When the heat gained surpasses the body's cooling capacity, temperatures rise, signaling potential health concerns.
