November represents an anticipatory stage towards the colder winter months. The city's weather transitions towards a cooler and more agreeable atmosphere, significantly different from the preceding months’ heat canvas. A significant dip in the average high temperature to 29.5°C (85.1°F), compared to
October's 33°C (91.4°F), is a clear marker. The scarcity of rainfall still prevails, with just a minor shower of about 4mm (0.16") occurring on average. It is still warm enough for water-based activities, considering the gradually lowering humidity levels.
Temperature
Sohar experiences a moderate temperature shift at the start of November, with average high-temperatures adjusting a bit from a hot 33°C (91.4°F) in October to a moderately hot 29.5°C (85.1°F).

Heat index
November's heat index is estimated at a tropical 34°C (93.2°F). Adopt heightened safety measures, heat cramps and heat exhaustion may occur. Sustained activity might cause heatstroke.
Bear in mind that the heat index values are determined for shaded areas and light breezes. Being under direct sunlight might amplify the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'real feel', integrates the air's temperature and its humidity to showcase the felt temperature by people. Factors including metabolic differences, physical activity, and clothing are additional elements that influence the individual's temperature experience. Bear in mind that direct sunshine exposure increases weather impact, and may raise heat index by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely significant for children. Younglings frequently fail to recognize the requirement to rest and rehydrate. Thirst emerges late in dehydration - it is imperative to keep hydration levels high, particularly during extended physical exertions.
