November weather forecast
Bangkok, Thailand

November in Bangkok, Thailand marks the full return of clear skies and cooler temperatures, indicating the year-end holiday season's onset. The city witnesses a steep decline in rainfall levels recording just 50mm (1.97") precipitation. The weather drastically brightens up, with longer sunshine hours restoring vigor in both locals and tourists. Despite the noticeable drop in rain, the city's greenery remains lush and vibrant due to the earlier monsoon season's residual moisture. The gradual fall of sea temperatures encapsulates the changing weather patterns as locals prepare for the coolest period in the upcoming December.

Temperature

As Bangkok welcomes November, the average high-temperature stabilizes at a still tropical 32.4°C (90.3°F), showing little deviation from October's 32.6°C (90.7°F). During November, the average low-temperature is a moderately hot 23.9°C (75°F).

Heat index

The average heat index in November is appraised at an extremely hot 42°C (107.6°F). Implement heightened safety measures - risk of heat exhaustion and heat cramps is increased. Prolonged activity may result in heatstroke.
Consider that heat index readings are for situations in the shade and light wind. Heat index values may surge by up to 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees in the presence of direct sunlight.
Note: The heat index, also known as 'felt air temperature' or 'feels like', provides an understanding of perceived warmth by combining temperature and relative humidity. One's perception of temperature can vary depending on physical activity and individual heat sensitivity, influenced by factors like wind, attire, and metabolic variations. In direct sunlight, the heat's impact can be heightened, potentially leading to an increase in the heat index by 15 Fahrenheit (8 Celsius) degrees. Heat index values remain especially vital for babies and toddlers. In general, younger individuals are at greater risk than adults because they tend to sweat less. Also, having a larger skin surface to body size ratio and greater heat production due to their active behavior contribute to this danger.
Evaporating sweat is a key way the human body dispels excessive warmth, all thanks to the process of perspiration. An increase in relative humidity disrupts body cooling by slowing the evaporation rate, thereby reducing the rate at which the body cools and amplifying the sense of heat. If heat absorption isn't effectively countered by the body's cooling methods, body temperature surges, hinting at potential problems.

Humidity

In November, the average relative humidity is 70%.

Rainfall

In Bangkok, in November, it is raining for 6 days, with typically 50mm (1.97") of accumulated precipitation. Throughout the year, there are 128 rainfall days, and 1648mm (64.88") of precipitation is accumulated.

Sea temperature

UV index

In November, the average daily maximum UV index is 10. A UV Index reading of 8 to 10 represents a very high health risk from unsafe exposure to UV radiation for the ordinary person.
Note: A maximum high daily UV index of 10 during November translates into the following directions:
Prioritize protection; rapid damage can occur to unprotected eyes and skin. Avoid exposure to the Sun and try to stay in the shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., when UV radiation is most potent, but be aware that parasols or canopies may not offer full 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. Sunscreen with a sun protection factor of no less than 30 should be used liberally and reapplied frequently on overcast days, including after every swim or outdoor activity. Alert! UV radiation becomes sharper due to reflections from sand and water.
