Weather in October
Temperature
A minimal variation is noted in Kolwezi's average high-temperature at the onset of October, reaching a still tropical 31.1°C (88°F) from September's 32°C (89.6°F). Despite substantial daily fluctuations, the average low-temperature is an enjoyable 18.1°C (64.6°F) during October.Heat index
Throughout October, the heat index is estimated at a hot 33°C (91.4°F). Greater preventive actions are needed, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Persistent activity could provoke heatstroke.Know that the heat index computations account for shaded terrains and slight winds. The heat index values could be amplified by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', blends air temperature and moisture content to represent the felt temperature to humans. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Considering the impact of direct sunlight, it's possible for the heat index to surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for 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.
