Heat index

The heat index value during November is calculated to be a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Apply extra caution, heat cramps and heat exhaustion could happen. Heatstroke might occur with long-duration activity.
Note that heat index values are valued for light wind and location in the shade. With direct sunlight, the heat index could increase by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'felt air temperature', embodies the combination of air temperature and moisture content to illustrate perceived heat. The individual's temperature perception can be influenced by numerous factors such as metabolic variations, physical activity, and clothing. Consider the fact that direct sun exposure can influence how hot one feels, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young ones often disregard the necessity to rest and hydrate. Thirst usually indicates advanced dehydration - hence, it is key to stay hydrated, particularly during ongoing physical activities.
The human body normally cools itself by perspiration. Excessive warmth is eliminated from the body by evaporation of sweat. With higher relative humidity, the rate of evaporation is reduced, resulting in increased heat retention in the body compared to drier air. Accumulating more heat than the body can dissipate leads to an uptick in body temperature, with potential heat stress consequences.

Humidity

In November, the average relative humidity is 87%.

Undertake precautions and comply with sun safety standards. Protection from skin and eye injury is vital. Stay in the shade and limit direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a time when UV radiation is particularly strong. Remember, however, that shade structures may not provide complete protection. Employ a hat with a wide brim for robust protection, cutting UV exposure by half.
