Temperature, UV index, and wind speed remain consistent, indicating stable weather outside of the increased rainfall.

Transitioning into November, the weather features increased rainfall and lower sunlight hours, characteristic of late-autumn tropical climates in the region.

Temperature

Albina's warmest weather arrives in October, when temperatures average a high of 33.1°C (91.6°F) and a low of 22.8°C (73°F).

Heat index

Throughout October, the heat index is estimated at a life-threatening hot 47°C (116.6°F). Guard: Heat exhaustion and heat cramps are foreseeable. Prolonged effort may bring about heatstroke.
It is emphasized that the heat index's values are meant for shaded zones with mild winds. Direct sunlight might cause an increase of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', combines air temperature and relative humidity to represent a human perceived temperature equivalent. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Keep aware, the sun, when shining directly, can intensify the heat experience, pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly important for children. Children often lack awareness of the importance of taking breaks and rehydrating. The feeling of thirst is a late indication of dehydration, so maintaining hydration, especially during long periods of physical activity, is critical.
To prevent overheating and help regulate its internal temperature, the human body sweat and rely on the evaporation to cool down. When the air holds a significant amount of moisture, the efficiency of the evaporation process is decreased, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently, leading to the sensation of overheating. Overheating dangers loom when the body's heat release mechanisms are overshadowed by excessive gain.
