Weather in October

The 10th month, October ushers in changing weather as Ranong bids adieu to the wet season. The average rainfall drops significantly to 425mm (16.73"), conveying the first signs of a respite from heavy showers. A little drop in temperature accompanies this change, establishing a downward pattern drivers towards a cooler climate. Paradoxically, October retains the high humidity level, offering a bit of a contradiction to Ranong’s climate. Consequently, it rings in the end of the lengthy wet season and paves the path to a drier phase.

Temperature

The start of October in Ranong marks an average high-temperature of a still hot 31°C (87.8°F), hardly distinguishable from the conditions in September. An average low-temperature of 23.6°C (74.5°F) is recorded during the nights in October.

Heat index

The heat index value during October is calculated to be a blisteringly hot 43°C (109.4°F). Remain cautious: Heat cramps along with heat exhaustion are foreseeable. Ongoing activity may precipitate heatstroke.
When assessing, remember that heat index measurements are for light winds and shaded spots. The heat index may scale up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees with direct sun exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. A person's impression of weather can be swayed by numerous aspects, among them metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Given the impact of direct sunlight, it's noteworthy that the felt temperature can rise by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young ones are generally at greater risk than adults due to their limited sweating ability. In addition, their large skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production from their activities add to their vulnerability.
The primary way humans combat excessive warmth is by perspiring, letting sweat evaporate and cool the body. When air moisture content is high, the cooling process through evaporation is not as efficient, leading to an ineffective body cooling process and a feeling of overheating. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.
