OCTOBER SETTING IN AND THE CHANGES IN WEATHER

     

 

 October marks the end of monsoon season in India and the return of warm, sunny days. Average daytime temperatures range from 20°C in the country’s far north, to 30°C in the southern states of Goa and Kerala, and 34°C in Delhi and Rajasthan.

Monsoon rains begin to recede from North India at the beginning of October. South India typically receives more rainfall. Post-monsoon or autumn season, lasting from October to November. In the northwest of India, October and November are usually cloudless.

While the day temperature is high, the nights are cool and pleasant. The ground is still moist. Due to the high temperature and humidity conditions, the weather becomes quite oppressive during the day. This is commonly referred to as the 'October Heat'.

The autumn season comes in September and October. As per the Hindu calendar, this season comes in Ashwin and Kartik months. The hot and humid weather starts disappearing and leaves start falling off the trees this season, also known as the fall season.

Days are usually warmer, and nights are a little cold and nice during the October heat. The humidity level rises as a result of the high temperature, making the days uncomfortable in nature. 'October Heat' is the name of the entire system. It's worth noting that India has a “monsoon” climate.

The weather changes in October vary by location, but some common changes include: 

Monsoon season ends

In India, October marks the end of the monsoon season, with the return of warm, sunny days. 

Decreased daylight

In many cities, daylight decreases by 2–3 minutes daily, resulting in earlier sunsets and later sunrises. 

 Decreased temperatures

Average temperatures decrease quickly in October due to the longer nights and shorter days. 

Rainfall

In India, October is expected to bring above-average rainfall, with projections of more than 115% of the 50-year average. 

The Beautiful Weather
We get to enjoy the summer weather cooling off into a cozier setting so we can all start dressing in our Fall attire again. The ability to put on your favorite hoodie and maintain the ideal temperature throughout the day, wherever you are, is always such a pleasure.

Thus the month of October is special to many of us because it marks the shift in weather, the vibrant colors of changing leaves, and the chance to dig out those cozy sweaters and bake our beloved apple pies. But there's more to October than football, costumes, and pumpkin spice.

Moreover this year October is coming with two grand festivals and celebrations are around the corner.

Have you started to gear up for the festivities?
