Weather in October
Temperature
During the shift to October, Chihuahua records a mild decrease in average high-temperature, moving from a tropical 92.8°F (33.8°C) in September to a still hot 87.3°F (30.7°C). October sees the temperature falling to a mean low of 70.3°F (21.3°C).Heat index
October's mean heat index is calculated to be a very hot 95°F (35°C). Take additional safety steps, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is notable. Prolonged activity may cause heatstroke.It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Exposure to direct sunshine can increase heat index values by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', stands as a testimony to how temperature and humidity combine to impact our sense of warmth. The influence of weather is personal, differing among a variety of individuals based on differences in body mass, stature, and the level of physical activity. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Children often fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst, being a late symptom of dehydration, underlines the importance of maintaining hydration, especially during ongoing physical activities.
The physiological response of the human body to excess warmth is to perspire, thereby cooling itself through sweat evaporation. In circumstances of high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is restricted, heightening the feeling of warmth. Excessive heat that's not properly managed leads to increased body temperatures and resultant health issues.

Skirt overexposure. People with light complexions might get scorched in under 20 minutes. Between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., UV radiation is strongest. Make an effort to avoid direct sunlight during this time, remembering that shade structures may not provide full sun protection. Experience reduced UV exposure by about half when donning a wide-brim hat.
