Moving into
October,
Surin’s intense rainfall gradually starts to decline, signaling an end to the wet season. Rainfall drops to a substantial 128mm (5.04") and the frequency of rain decreases noticeably. However, muddy streets and vibrant greenery serve as reminders of the past rainy months. The heat remains manageable with moderated humidity, building anticipation for the drier months ahead.
Temperature
The commencement of October in Surin,
Thailand, records an average high-temperature of a still tropical 31.1°C (88°F), barely varying from
September's 31.7°C (89.1°F). In October, Surin reports a consistent average low-temperature of 23.3°C (73.9°F) during the nights.
Heat index
For most parts of October, the heat index is evaluated at a scorching 42°C (107.6°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is a single figure representing how weather conditions feel when combining temperature and humidity. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Recognize that direct exposure to the sun can escalate the heat effect, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values hold great significance to children. Young ones often ignore the need to take a break and drink fluids. Thirst is a late-stage symptom of dehydration - hence, maintaining hydration, particularly during extended physical activities, is crucial.
Perspiration, followed by sweat evaporation, is the human body's chief method to maintain a balanced temperature. An elevated level of relative humidity hinders evaporation, leading to decreased heat elimination from the body, inducing a sensation of excess heat. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.
