October's mean heat index is appraised at 28°C (82.4°F). Uninterrupted activity during exposure could lead to a sense of exhaustion, possibly causing heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade.

Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. A person's impression of weather can be affected by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. The sun, when shining directly, can have a significant impact on the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are especially crucial for babies and toddlers. Youngsters generally face more threats than adults given their lesser ability to sweat. Coupled with their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production due to their activities, they are more endangered.
