Weather in October
Temperature
The shift from September to October coincides with a small decrease in the average high-temperature, down to a moderately hot 82.9°F (28.3°C) from a hot 88.5°F (31.4°C). In October, Emporia encounters an average low-temperature of 66.6°F (19.2°C) during the night.Heat index
The average heat index in October is computed to be a hot 89.6°F (32°C). Long-standing exposure and activity could induce a feeling of tiredness and lead to heat cramps.Keep in mind the heat index values are meant for areas in shade and with light wind. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', is what the temperature feels like to the human body when the air temperature is combined with the relative humidity. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
