October, the same as
September, in
Sattahip,
Thailand, is another hot autumn month, with an average temperature varying between 23.8°C (74.8°F) and 32.3°C (90.1°F).
Temperature
With the arrival of October, Sattahip's average high-temperature registers at a still hot 32.3°C (90.1°F), indicating a subtle variation from the previous month. The nighttime temperature dips to a warm 23.8°C (74.8°F) on average during October.
Heat index
October's mean heat index is computed to be a blazing hot 46°C (114.8°F).
Stay alert: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are expected. Heatstroke is a likely outcome of ongoing activity.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The heat index may experience an enhancement of 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. Factors such as metabolic variations, being pregnant, and physical activity can impact an individual's weather perception. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly relevant to babies and toddlers. Young children are more at risk than adults since they tend to sweat less. Moreover, their large skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the high heat production due to their activities contribute to their vulnerability.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself 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 dehydration threats arise when heat gain goes beyond what the body can comfortably shed.
Humidity
October is the most humid month in Sattahip, with an average relative humidity of 82%.
