November weather forecast
Handeni, Tanzania

November brings a characteristically tropical weather-pattern to Handeni with high temperatures and heightened rain volume. The month's highest temperature is recorded at 29.1°C (84.4°F), further intensifying the pre-existing humid environment. A sharp rise in rain volume to 109mm (4.29") becomes this month's distinguished trait, marking the city's transition into the wet season. As November passes, the periods of sunshine shorten when compared to the following month. Paradoxically, despite the rainfall, the cloud cover sees a minuscule decrease, providing patchy sunlight hours.

Temperature

The advent of November reveals an average high-temperature of a still moderately hot 29.1°C (84.4°F), showing minimal difference from the prior month. Handeni, in November, observes a steady average low-temperature of 18.5°C (65.3°F).

Heat index

During November, the heat index is estimated at a fiery hot 35°C (95°F). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.
Take into consideration that the heat index values are calculated for shade and light wind conditions. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'feels like', comes about by integrating the temperature readings with the humidity levels. An individual's temperature experience can be influenced by extra factors, including metabolic differences, activity levels, and clothing. 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 hold particular importance for children. Children usually face more risks than adults as their ability to sweat is less. Additionally, their larger skin surface in relation to their petite bodies and higher heat output due to their activities increases their vulnerability.
Perspiration and the resultant sweat evaporation are the body's natural thermostat, helping regulate temperature. Greater relative humidity lessens the rate of evaporation, thus decreasing the body's heat dispersal, which gives rise to a sensation of overheating. Exceeding the body's heat disposal threshold results in a rise in body temperature and potential thermal disorders.

Prevent overexposure. Protection from the sun's harmful effects is needed. Stay in the shade and avoid direct Sun exposure from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., a period when UV radiation is particularly strong, noting that parasols or canopies may not offer total sun protection. Sun-protective clothing, a long-sleeved shirt and pants, a wide-brimmed hat, and UVA and UVB-blocking sunglasses are particularly helpful in blocking UV radiation's harmful effects.
