Mambasa, Democratic Republic of Congo

With November, Mambasa starts experiencing a decline in temperature, signaling the beginning of colder days. Compared to October, rainfall reduces substantially to 173mm (6.81"), commencing the drying up of moisture. The wind speed increases slightly, creating a calm and breezy atmosphere. November implies the ending of the rainy season, and the humidity level sees a significant drop. As the city transitions towards the end of the year, the atmospheric pressure shows a stabilizing pattern.

Temperature

In the transition from October to November, Mambasa reports an average high-temperature of a still warm 28.9°C (84°F), indicating a close resemblance to the prior month. An average nighttime temperature of 17.9°C (64.2°F) is observed during November.

Heat index

For most parts of November, the heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 35°C (95°F). Preventive measures are required to mitigate the risk of heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuous activity may precipitate heatstroke.
Thinking about the heat index, one should account for its values in shaded areas with gentle breezes. Exposing to direct sunshine may enhance heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a composite of temperature and humidity figures to convey how warm it feels. Elements such as metabolic variations, pregnancy, and physical exertion can shape one's weather perception. It is essential to realize that direct sunlight can escalate the perceived temperature, increasing the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. Children typically face more danger than adults as their sweat production is usually lower. Additionally, the bigger skin surface compared to their small size and the increased heat due to their activeness exacerbate the risk.
One way the human body deals with excessive warmth is by perspiring and allowing sweat to evaporate. Higher relative humidity impedes evaporation, thus reducing heat dispersion from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Shield from overexposure. Defense against sun-related harm is required. Seek shade and limit direct sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the peak period for UV radiation. Keep in mind that shade structures like parasols or canopies do not offer complete sun protection. Safeguard your eyes, ears, and face from sun rays with the aid of a wide-brim hat.
