Weather in October
Temperature
As September turns into October, the average high-temperatures rest at a still moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F), showing a minor variation from the prior month. An average low-temperature of 18.5°C (65.3°F) marks the nights throughout October.Heat index
In October, the average heat index is estimated at a tropical 33°C (91.4°F). Undertake enhanced precautions, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are possible risks. Continuous activity could trigger heatstroke.Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', represents the fusion of temperature and moisture in the air to suggest how warm it feels. Additional elements encompassing metabolic differences, the degree of physical activity, and attire can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Direct exposure to sun rays can potentially augment the heat sensation, elevating the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to 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.

Employ safeguards and advocate sun safety protocols. Shielding against skin and eye damage is crucial. Make an effort to avoid direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation, and note that objects like parasols or canopies might not offer full sun protection. For holistic sun protection encompassing the eyes, ears, face, and neck, a wide-brim hat is key.
