Weather in October
Temperature
The arrival of October brings an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.2°C (84.6°F), nearly identical to September's 28.8°C (83.8°F). Kondavil, in October, logs an average low-temperature of 27.7°C (81.9°F), a subtle step down from daytime readings.Heat index
For most parts of October, the heat index is estimated at a very hot 35°C (95°F). Ensure heightened precautions, risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion is significant. Sustained activity could provoke heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. A direct sunlight exposure may boost the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', reflects the feeling of heat when considering both air temperature and humidity. Factors such as metabolic variation, pregnancy, and physical activity play a role in one's impression of weather. Exposure to direct sun rays can influence the heat you feel, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The human body cools itself through perspiration, as excessive warmth is removed from the body through sweat evaporation. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Overheating and potential dehydration arise when body heat gain eclipses its release capability.
