Paris in November

Low grey skies and early sunsets. All Saints on the 1st and Armistice Day on the 11th are public holidays. Beaujolais Nouveau is released on the third Thursday and wine bars get lively. It helps to have a few indoor plans ready for wet days.

Highs of 11°C and lows of 6°C. Even at midday it stayed cool enough to want a jacket. Day and night differed by only 5°C, so one outfit worked from breakfast to late dinner. Rain fell on 10 days of the month on average. Year to year it swung widely, from 3 rain days in 2020 to 17 in 2019.

Days were short. Daylight shrank from 9.9 to 8.6 hours across the month, so plan outdoor sights early. Frost touched 1 night of the month on average, enough to glaze puddles and shaded steps at first light. The warmest year was 2015, with highs averaging 13.7°C, 2.6°C above normal. Cold snaps happened: the record low for November was −4.7°C, set in 2016.
