October weather forecast
Trat, Thailand

October signifies the beginning of the retreat of monsoons in Trat. The city receives appreciably less rainfall than September, marking a significant drop in precipitation. Though the city retains some humidity, the overall weather improves substantially. Less rain and extended daylight hours infuse a sense of renewal in the atmosphere. October serves as a break from constant rainfall and a transition towards drier and cooler weather.

Temperature

Transitioning into October, Trat records an average high-temperature of a still hot 31.5°C (88.7°F), almost identical to September's 30.9°C (87.6°F). Trat throughout October, experiences an average nighttime temperature of 23.4°C (74.1°F).

Heat index

Throughout October, the heat index is appraised at a life-threatening hot 45°C (113°F). Beware: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are on the cards. Heatstroke could result from sustained physical activity.
One should consider that heat index numbers are for shaded settings and light wind. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The experience of temperature can be subjective, varying based on the individual's activity and heat perception, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. Realize that direct exposure to sunlight can augment the felt heat, leading to a potential increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Youngsters typically face more danger than adults since they sweat less. Their larger skin surface compared to their small bodies and heightened heat production from their activities augment their vulnerability.
Normally, the human body cools itself through perspiration, which removes excessive heat by evaporating sweat. Increased relative humidity interferes with body cooling by slowing the rate of evaporation, resulting in a slower body cooling rate and a heightened feeling of heat. Should the body fail to balance its heat gain, the escalating temperature poses health challenges.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in October is 85%.
