Weather in November
Temperature
The arrival of November sees an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.8°C (85.6°F), hardly diverging from October's 29.6°C (85.3°F). Handapangoda experiences a minimal drop from daytime high temperatures, recording an average low-temperature of 24.8°C (76.6°F) throughout November.Heat index
For most parts of November, the heat index is evaluated at a sweltering 37°C (98.6°F). Extra safeguards are necessary to prevent heat exhaustion and heat cramps. Prolonged activity might cause heatstroke.It is essential to grasp that the heat index's numbers are for shade and light wind settings. A rise in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees may result from direct sunlight exposure.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', marries air temperature and humidity to produce a value illustrating perceived warmth. Factors encompassing physical activity, clothing, and metabolic differences have a role in shaping the individual's impression of temperature. Sunshine, when direct, has the potential to intensify weather effects, leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are primarily vital for children. 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. 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. The body is at risk of dehydration and related complications when it fails to shed excessive heat.
