October accommodates a significant change in Sohar's weather dynamics. It exhibits a much more pleasant climate as the intensity of the summer heat wanes. The monthly average high temperature comfortably settles at 33°C (91.4°F), refining the city's weather profile. The absence of rainfall points towards the continuing dry spell. However, the lowering heat and comfortable humidity ensures pleasant weather for all kinds of outdoor pursuits.

Temperature

October's arrival registers an average high-temperature of a still hot 33°C (91.4°F), closely aligning with the temperature of the previous month. Significant variation from daytime temperatures marks October, with the month recording a nightly average of 20.4°C (68.7°F).

Heat index

The heat index for October is estimated at a burning hot 45°C (113°F). Vigilance: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are likely. The likelihood of heatstroke increases with continued activity.
The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Heat index values have the potential to be boosted by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', measures the perceived warmth when incorporating the humidity present in the air. This effect is subjective, differing among individuals based on their physical activity and perception of heat, which can be influenced by factors like wind, clothing, and metabolic variances. With the sun shining directly, it's crucial to understand that it can increase the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for babies and toddlers. Juveniles are regularly less conscious of the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a tardy symptom of dehydration - hydration, especially during lengthy physical activities, should be maintained.
One of the main methods the human body employs to cool down is by perspiring, as this process allows sweat to evaporate and remove excess heat. When relative humidity is heightened, it slows the rate of evaporation, thereby decreasing the body's ability to shed heat and creating a sensation of overheating. When heat surpasses the body's release mechanisms, dehydration and overheating risks become pronounced.
