November in
Ras Al-Khaimah exudes a contrasting weather dynamic. The temperature reduces further to 31.4°C (88.5°F), offering the initial winter chill. The daylight becomes lesser, shrinking the daytime in correlation with the progressing winter arc. On the other end, relative humidity increases, adding a damp edge to the otherwise drying atmosphere. An increase in rainfall days indicates the onset of the wet season, juxtaposing the decreasing temperature with a delicate balance in the weather pattern.

The shift to November brings a decrease in the average high-temperature, falling from a sweltering 36.7°C (98.1°F) in
October to a hot 31.4°C (88.5°F). In Ras Al-Khaimah, a significant divergence from daytime highs is recorded, with average lows of 16.6°C (61.9°F) during November nights.
Heat index
For November, the heat index is appraised at a fiery hot 36°C (96.8°F). Greater safety measures are needed, risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is high. Continuous activity might trigger heatstroke.
Realize that the values for the heat index are set for shaded places and light winds. Direct sunlight exposure may cause a 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees rise in the heat index.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'feels like' or 'apparent temperature', is a calculation that merges air temperature and relative humidity to depict the sensation of warmth. Physical activity, clothing, and metabolic variations are additional factors that impact an individual's perception of temperature. It is important to note that direct sunlight can intensify the weather impact, potentially raising the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values are extremely vital to babies and toddlers. Young individuals usually face greater risks than adults as their sweat production is less. Also, their larger skin surface relative to their small bodies and the high heat generation due to their activity contributes to their vulnerability.
The innate cooling system of the human body revolves around perspiration, with the evaporation of sweat being central to this process. When relative humidity is on the rise, it curtails evaporation, thereby reducing the heat elimination from the body and causing the feeling of being excessively hot. When heat gain exceeds the level the body can remove, body temperature begins to rise, and heat-related illnesses and disorders may develop.
