Weather in November
Temperature
During November, the average high-temperature is a warm 29.2°C (84.6°F), maintaining a close resemblance to that of the preceding month. Nighttime temperatures during November report a consistent average of 25.3°C (77.5°F).Heat index
In November, the average heat index is evaluated at a very hot 35°C (95°F). Exercise heightened safety, heat cramps and heat exhaustion are probable. Persistent activity may provoke heatstroke.The heat index's values are generally associated with conditions in shade and light breezes. Exposure to the sun directly might heighten the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'apparent temperature', arises from combining readings of air temperature and relative moisture content. The impact of weather on an individual can be subjective, affected by the person's activity and heat perception, which can vary due to elements including wind, clothing, and metabolic differences. Taking into account that direct sunlight can boost the heat effect, the heat index may rise by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values hold particular importance for children. Kids are generally in more danger than adults because they perspire less. Their large skin surface area compared to their small bodies and the excessive heat due to their actions raises their risk.
When the body gets too warm, it perspires, leading to sweat evaporation which cools it down. When relative humidity is at high levels, the evaporation rate lessens, causing the body to keep more heat than it would in less humid conditions. Potential thermal conditions emerge as the body's heat gain outpaces its cooling mechanisms.

A UV Index of 6 to 7 symbolizes a high health hazard from exposure to the Sun's UV rays for ordinary individuals.Note: In November, the maximum UV index of 7 translates into these guidelines:
Take precautions against overexposure. Fair-skinned people may get burned in less than 20 minutes. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. To mitigate harm from sun exposure, pick sunglasses offering UVA and UVB defense.
