November weather forecast
Maridi, South Sudan

November in Maridi strikes a balance between the receding wet season and the advancing dry spell as it transitions through the month. As cloud cover decreases, the sunshine duration extends, transforming the weather. The uptick in wind speed offers relief from the residual humidity. The overall increase in pressure to around 1009.5 mb in November further eases the weather into its dry phase. However, the most significant change transpires in the month's rainfall level, dropping sharply to 66mm (2.6").

Temperature

November's advent in Maridi presents an average high-temperature of a hot 31°C (87.8°F), indicating a slight variation from the conditions of the previous month. November brings an average low-temperature of 20.1°C (68.2°F) to Maridi.

Heat index

November's average heat index is estimated at a very hot 37°C (98.6°F). Adopt heightened preventive measures, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are probable. Persistent activity could lead to heatstroke.
It is crucial to understand that heat index figures are for shade and gentle wind conditions. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. Elements of metabolic variation, physical activity, and clothing contribute to the effect of temperature on an individual. Direct sun exposure is noteworthy in its ability to escalate the felt temperature, potentially adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young children are generally more endangered than adults, as they usually less sweat. And also, due to larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and higher heat production as a result of their activity.
Through perspiration, the body has a natural mechanism to eliminate excessive heat via sweat evaporation. Increased relative humidity slows down evaporation, thereby decreasing the rate of heat removal from the body, culminating in a sensation of overheating. Overheating risks increase with rising body temperatures, especially if heat release isn't efficient.

Humidity

In November, the average relative humidity is 68%.

Rainfall

UV index

The months with the highest UV index are January through March, November and December, with an average maximum UV index of 7. A UV Index value of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health vulnerability from exposure to the Sun's UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: A typical high UV index of 7 in November suggests the following recommendations:
Avoid excessive sunlight. Those with lighter skin may experience burning in less than 20 minutes. 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. Outfit yourself in sun-safe attire, like long sleeves, pants, a hat, and UV-blocking sunglasses.
