Heat index

November's heat index is computed to be a very hot 35°C (95°F). Take more safety measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are potential outcomes. Persistent activity might lead to heatstroke.
Heat index details are generally centered around shaded locations and a mild breeze. A rise of up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the heat index could result from direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'feels like', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. This effect tends to be personal, with the weather perception differing among individuals due to variations in body mass, height, and exertion. 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 largely significant for babies and toddlers. Children frequently underestimate the importance of resting and drinking fluids. Thirst is a symptom of advanced dehydration - hence the need to hydrate regularly, especially during protracted physical exercises.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. With a high level of moisture in the air, the evaporation process becomes less efficient, preventing the body from cooling down efficiently and resulting in a sensation of overheating. When body temperature rises due to excess heat gain beyond its removal capability, one might experience heat-related disorders.

Humidity

Ensure all key precautions. Defense against sun exposure is critical. During the period from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., UV radiation is highest. Try to avoid direct sunlight during these hours. Sun-related eye harm can be minimized with proper sunglasses offering UVA and UVB coverage. Even when the sky is cloudy, apply generously and frequently reapply a sunscreen with SPF 30 or more, especially post every swim or outdoor exercise. Beware! The reflection of water and sand dramatically increases exposure to the UV rays.
