How hot is it in Zambia during November?

The temperature reaches around 38℃ during the daytime in November, falling away to 22℃ at night. The UV index will be high at this time of year, so protection against skin and eye damage is needed. Try to limit exposure between 10am and 4pm. Apply broad spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every few hours, even if it's cloudy, or more frequently after sweating or swimming, and wear UV-blocking sunglasses too, and bear in mind that bright surfaces, such as sand and water increase UV exposure.

Does it rain in Zambia during November?

On average, there will be 3 rainy days during the month, amounting to 59.7mm in total. That's broadly comparable with the amount of rain we see in England during the summer months, and would be considered dry. There's a small chance that you'll catch a thunderstorm during your trip.

Is it windy in Zambia during November?

You're unlikely to experience any strong winds. Expect a light breeze that picks up slightly at times in November. With moderate humidity, any breeze will have a very welcome cooling effect.
