Weather in October
Temperature
Kanilai's transition into October brings a slight rise in the average high-temperature, moving from a hot 32°C (89.6°F) in September to a very hot 35.4°C (95.7°F). Kanilai's nighttime temperature in October falls to an average of 24.8°C (76.6°F).Heat index
Throughout October, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 51°C (123.8°F). Stay watchful: Heat exhaustion along with heat cramps are likely. Ongoing effort may cause heatstroke.Understanding the heat index involves considering values for shaded locales with light wind. Direct sunlight might lead to a heat index increase by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Metabolic differences, pregnancy status, and the level of physical activity are additional factors influencing an individual's weather perception. By being directly under the sun, it's possible for the felt temperature to increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
In high temperatures, perspiration kicks in, allowing the human body to cool down through the evaporation of sweat. Augmented relative humidity impedes typical body cooling mechanisms by lowering the evaporation rate, resulting in decreased body cooling and an amplified perception of heat. Heat disorders may be on the horizon when body temperatures rise from inadequate heat management.

Take precautions against overexposure. Protection against sun damage is needed. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the Sun's UV radiation is at its peak. Limit your exposure to direct sunlight during these hours. Tightly woven clothing, when worn loosely, shields effectively against the Sun.
