November commences with an average high-temperature of a still hot 32.2°C (90°F), showing little deviation from October's 31°C (87.8°F). During November, Dongou consistently records a temperature low averaging an agreeable 21.3°C (70.3°F).

Heat index

In November, the heat index is estimated at a scorching 44°C (111.2°F). Watchful: Heat cramps and heat exhaustion are predicted. Continued exertion could lead to heatstroke.
It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. With exposure to direct sunlight, the heat index may be increased by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is found by incorporating humidity levels into the air temperature measurement. One's perception of weather can be shaped by other factors, involving metabolic differences, pregnancy, and physical exertion. Awareness of direct sun exposure is crucial as it has the potential to heighten the weather's effects, pushing up the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are particularly meaningful for babies and toddlers. Young people are generally more susceptible than adults because they perspire less. Furthermore, their proportionally larger skin surface to their petite bodies and the increased heat output from their actions add to the risk.
The natural cooling mechanism in humans involves perspiration, where the evaporation of sweat balances out excessive warmth. Under conditions of high temperature and humidity (enhanced heat index), sweat production is compromised, exacerbating the sensation of warmth. As body temperatures escalate without effective heat release, one might face dehydration threats.
