November shifts the weather pattern drastically with a substantial decrease in rainfall to 72mm (2.83"). The characteristic pattern now edges closer to that of a dry season. A reduction in the number of rainy days brings a noticeable increase in sunshine hours altering the atmosphere. The gentle change towards cooler temperatures sets the course for the imminent winter season. The onset of drier days commences as
Pattaya exits the monsoon.
Temperature
The average high-temperature during November is a still tropical 30.5°C (86.9°F), almost matching the conditions of the preceding month. In Pattaya, in November, the average low-temperature is a moderately hot 23.7°C (74.7°F).
Heat index
The average heat index in November is appraised at a very hot 38°C (100.4°F). Implement additional safety measures to avoid heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Persistent activity might trigger heatstroke.
Be advised, the heat index considers values for conditions in shade and with a light breeze. Direct sunlight has the potential to heighten heat index values by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'real feel' or 'felt air temperature', is achieved by amalgamating air temperature with the relative humidity readings. One's weather perception can be influenced by a range of factors including metabolic differences, being pregnant, and their level of physical activity. Under direct sun rays, the felt temperature might be heightened, with the heat index increasing by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are of high significance for children. Kids are usually more vulnerable than adults, given their lesser sweating ability. Along with their larger skin surface relative to their small stature and the excess heat due to their activity, their risk is amplified.
Perspiring is how the human body naturally cools down, as sweat's evaporation takes away excess heat. 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. When heat uptake goes beyond the body's cooling mechanisms, there's a surge in body temperature, posing health risks.
Humidity
The average relative humidity in November is 76%.

UV index

Note: The average daily UV index of 10 in November transforms into the following instructions:
Always be careful, as unprotected skin and eyes might burn in no time. The Sun's UV radiation is most potent between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Try to avoid direct sunlight during this time. Enhance your sun protection with tightly woven, yet airy clothing. Use liberally and reapply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 every two hours and right after outdoor activities or a swim. Be cautious! Sand and water surfaces make the Sun's UV rays more potent.
