Weather in November

November, the last month of the spring in Mkutumula, is another tropical month, with an average temperature ranging between min 21.5°C (70.7°F) and max 32.5°C (90.5°F).

Temperature

November brings a marginal elevation to a still hot 32.5°C (90.5°F) from October's 33.1°C (91.6°F) in Mkutumula's average high-temperatures. The nighttime temperature dips to an agreeable 21.5°C (70.7°F) on average during November.

Heat index

The heat index in November is evaluated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Exercise extra preventive actions, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are plausible. Continuous activity could result in heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. The heat index can potentially augment by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees due to direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. The perception of temperature can be subjective, varying based on activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. In the direct sunlight, the weather's impact can be amplified, possibly boosting the heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Typically, young kids are at a higher risk than adults since they sweat less. Also, the larger skin surface in proportion to their small bodies and the heightened heat production due to their active nature adds to their vulnerability.
The evaporation of sweat is a natural cooling mechanism of the human body, facilitated by perspiration. Under high air temperature coupled with high humidity (high heat index), the body's perspiration is reduced, intensifying the sensation of heat. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Humidity

The average relative humidity in November is 57%.

Rainfall

In Mkutumula, in November, it is raining for 12.9 days, with typically 50mm (1.97") of accumulated precipitation. In Mkutumula, during the entire year, the rain falls for 138 days and collects up to 632mm (24.88") of precipitation.

UV index

In Mkutumula, the average daily maximum UV index in November is 6. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: The UV index of 6 during November leads to these advisories:
Uphold preventive measures and conform to sun safety guidelines. Defending against skin and eye harm is crucial. Avoid direct Sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is at its peak, but keep in mind that not all shade structures provide complete protection. Your best bet for sun defense on the face, eyes, and neck is a hat with a wide brim.
