The last month of the autumn, November, is a hot month in Dalupotha, Sri Lanka, with an average temperature fluctuating between 24.5°C (76.1°F) and 30.2°C (86.4°F).

Heat index

During November, the heat index is estimated at a torrid 38°C (100.4°F). Ensure extra safety steps, heat exhaustion and heat cramps are likely. Long activity might lead to heatstroke.
It is worth noting that heat index values are gauged for conditions in the shade and light breezes. Uninterrupted exposure to the sun may boost the heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'apparent temperature' or 'felt air temperature', is a calculated temperature value of how hot it feels when the moisture in the air is factored in. The impression of weather on a person can be swayed by additional aspects, including metabolic variations, pregnancy, and activity levels. Take note that direct exposure to the sun can increase the felt temperature, possibly adding 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees to the heat index. Heat index values are highly critical to babies and toddlers. Young kids are often more at risk than adults as they tend to perspire less. Besides, their skin surface is larger relative to their small bodies, and their increased heat output from their active lifestyle compounds their risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. When heat gain surpasses the level the body can shed, body temperature begins to increase, and consequently, overheating and dehydration can occur, with varying severity.
