Entering the tail-end of the year,
November continues
October's high rainfall trend at
Cocobeach, albeit to a slightly lesser extent. The frequency of rainfall remains high with over three weeks marked by downpours. With negligible changes in temperature, the city retains its warm and humid tropical aura. The sea temperature escalates a degree further, offering warm tides for sea activities. November might be characterised by heavy showers, but it is this rain that keeps Cocobeach's weather mirroring the vibrant life of a tropical paradise.
Temperature
The start of November marks an average high-temperature of a still warm 29.1°C (84.4°F), hardly distinguishable from the conditions in October. Nighttime temperature dips to a mean of 22.6°C (72.7°F) during November.
Heat index
In November, the average heat index is calculated to be a torrid 37°C (98.6°F). Undertake special precautions, the probability of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Prolonged activity may provoke heatstroke.
It is noted that heat index values are ascertained for locations in the shade and with gentle breezes. Heat index values may be hiked up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees under direct sunshine.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', is an aggregate value of air's warmth and moisture to show the human-felt temperature. Additional factors encompassing metabolic differences, the level of physical activity, and clothing can impact the individual's perception of temperature. Keep it in mind, direct sunlight can augment the heat you experience, possibly pushing the heat index up by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for babies and toddlers. Children often overlook the need for breaks and fluid intake. Thirst is a late-stage sign of dehydration - hence, it is necessary to stay hydrated, especially during extended periods of physical activities.
Perspiration is the human body's physiological response to high temperatures and is an attempt to lower body temperature through evaporation of sweat. With a lot of moisture in the air, the evaporation process is not as effective, and the body does not cool down as efficiently, creating a perception of overheating. As the body accumulates more heat than it can release, body temperature goes up, increasing the risk of heat-related health issues.
Humidity
October and November, with an average relative humidity of 88%, are the most humid months.
