Weather in October
Temperature
The beginning of October subtly marks a decrease in the average high-temperature, transitioning from a tropical 88.7°F (31.5°C) in September to a warm 83.3°F (28.5°C). Throughout the October nights, Valrico encounters a low-temperature of 68.5°F (20.3°C).Heat index
During October, the heat index is estimated at a tropical 89.6°F (32°C). If activity and exposure persist, they could induce fatigue, leading to possible heat cramps.Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Under direct sunshine, the heat index values might be elevated 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. The individual's impression of temperature can be affected by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical exertion, and attire. Consider the sun's direct rays and their impact; they can potentially increase the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Youngsters are usually more at risk than adults, considering they sweat less. Additionally, their high skin surface area compared to their little bodies and their high heat production due to activity increases their risk.
