Weather in October
Temperature
Sopo measures an average high-temperature of a still tropical 32.6°C (90.7°F) in October, nearly consistent with the preceding month. October brings Sopo a consistent average low-temperature of 21.4°C (70.5°F).Heat index
October's mean heat index is evaluated at an extremely hot 41°C (105.8°F). Implement more preventive measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Heatstroke might result from extended activity.Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. The heat index has the potential to rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sunshine exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', unifies temperature and humidity readings to offer a comprehensive feel of warmth. The impact of temperature is individual, as people's perception of weather may change based on their body mass, height, and physical activity. 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 extremely significant for 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.
To combat high temperatures, the human body perspires and relies on sweat evaporation for cooling. Under conditions of increased relative humidity, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to retain more heat than under less humid conditions. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
