Weather in October
Temperature
The onset of October marks an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 81.5°F (27.5°C), hardly differing from September's 85.1°F (29.5°C). West Melbourne's nighttime average temperature in October subtly descends to a still warm 73.6°F (23.1°C) from the daily highs.Heat index
For October, the heat index is computed to be a hot 86°F (30°C). When exposure and activity are sustained, they could induce fatigue, with a chance of heat cramps.Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'real feel', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. An individual's perception of weather can be affected by a variety of elements including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical exertion. 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 hold great significance to children. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
