Weather in October
Temperature
October reports an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.8°C (83.8°F), slightly varied from September's 28.3°C (82.9°F). Consistently, Mahamodara reports average nighttime temperatures of 25.9°C (78.6°F) during October, a marginal step down from its daytime highs.Heat index
October's mean heat index is evaluated at a hot 34°C (93.2°F). Adopt special protective actions against heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Long-duration activity risks heatstroke.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Exposure to the direct sun could elevate the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. Should you be directly under the sun, anticipate a possible increase in the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Young ones are generally more prone to risk than adults due to their reduced ability to sweat. Their large skin surface area relative to their diminutive bodies and elevated heat production from their activities further enhance this risk.
