October in Libya marks a noticeable shift towards the autumn season. Temperatures across the country continue to decrease, while rainfall remains minimal, albeit slightly increased compared to the summer months.

Coastal cities like Tripoli and Benghazi also experience a substantial reduction in temperatures during October. Average temperatures in these areas fall between 22°C (71.6°F) and 26°C (78.8°F). This decrease in temperature offers a more comfortable climate compared to the heat of the summer.

Jabal al Akhdar, with its Mediterranean climate, experiences average temperatures ranging from 20°C (68°F) to 24°C (75.2°F) in October. The temperature in this region continues to be lower than in the desert regions, which provides a welcome relief from the waning heat.

In terms of precipitation, October sees a slight uptick in rainfall across Libya compared to the extremely dry summer months. However, even in Jabal al Akhdar, the region with the most rainfall in the country, precipitation remains quite limited.

While October does not hold any extreme weather records for Libya, it signifies the transition from the intense summer heat to the milder and slightly wetter climate of the autumn season. The falling temperatures and slight increase in rainfall clearly indicate the change of seasons in Libya.
