October weather forecast
Panaga, Brunei

October illustrates a change in Panaga's weather, with an increase in relative humidity and rainfall. Higher precipitation levels indicate the start of a wetter period.

Predictions for November suggest similar weather patterns.

Temperature

Transitioning from September to October, Panaga observes an average high-temperature of a still hot 30.7°C (87.3°F), differing subtly from the previous month. Panaga observes an average nighttime low-temperature of 25.5°C (77.9°F) during the month of October.

Heat index

October's average heat index is computed to be a fiery hot 39°C (102.2°F). More safety actions are required, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Long-term activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Heat index determinations are made taking into account the shade and light air movements. In the presence of direct sunshine, the heat index could be augmented by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. An individual's perception of weather can be influenced by a variety of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their degree of physical exertion. With direct sunlight, be aware that it might enhance the heat sensation, raising the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young children typically face greater hazards than adults because they do not sweat as much. Their larger skin surface in comparison to their little bodies and the high heat production from their active nature compounds their vulnerability.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. In high relative humidity, the body's ability to evaporate heat is diminished, resulting in a heightened feeling of warmth. If heat absorption exceeds the body's cooling ability, body temperature can elevate, resulting in potential thermal illnesses.

Implement preventive steps and embrace sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye distress is compulsory. Stay out of direct sunlight between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most intense, and remember that not all shade structures provide complete protection. It's wise to wear UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses when the sun shines brightly.
