November weather forecast
Zanaga, Congo

November witnesses the peak rainfall of the year with a whopping 314mm (12.36"). The city's weather morphs extensively, with a thick cloud cover, high humidity, and reduced visibility, similar to January. The slight decrease in temperature does little to alleviate the sticky atmosphere created by the drastic rise in precipitation. The cloudiness leads to decreased sunshine, resulting in less available daylight.

Temperature

Zanaga observes an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.4°C (83.1°F) in November, barely different from 29.3°C (84.7°F) in October. In the month of November, the average temperature dips to an agreeable 21.1°C (70°F) during the night.

Heat index

The heat index value during November is computed to be a very hot 35°C (95°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Evaluating the heat index requires understanding its values in the shade and with gentle winds. Exposure to direct sunlight may make the heat index values climb by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is derived by integrating air temperature with the existing relative humidity to express the perceived warmth. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. One should be aware that direct sunshine can amplify the perceived temperature, raising the heat index by as much as 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are quite important for children. Juveniles often do not understand the need to recuperate and rehydrate. Thirst is a delayed symptom of dehydration - hence, it is vital to maintain hydration, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. During high air temperature and humidity (high heat index), the process of perspiration is hindered, intensifying the sensation of heat. Heat-related disorders may develop if heat gain in the body overshadows its cooling capacity, leading to elevated temperatures.

Ward off overexposure. Defence against solar harm is crucial. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full protection. Protect your eyes, ears, face, and neck from the Sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat.
