The introduction of October sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 27.5°C (81.5°F), hardly deviating from September. Garsfontein experiences a drastic reduction from day temperatures to an average low of 15.5°C (59.9°F) in October.Heat index
During October, the heat index is computed to be 27°C (80.6°F). Enduring exposure and continuous activity might cause a feeling of tiredness and induce heat cramps.Take note of the fact that heat index values are based on shaded circumstances with light airflows. Exposure to unobstructed sunshine could lead to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. When you're directly under the sun's rays, remember that the heat index may surge by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
