November weather forecast
Alabama, USA

As November unfurls in Alabama, the unmistakable signs of winter begin to emerge, leading to a noticeable transition from the mildness of autumn. Throughout the state, temperatures take a deeper dive, setting the stage for the colder months ahead.

In central Alabama, the drop in daytime temperatures becomes more evident. While the sun can still offer warmth during the day, there's a distinctive chill in the air, particularly in the mornings and evenings. Nights become colder, with frost becoming a common occurrence, especially in areas with higher elevations. Coastal regions, while generally milder due to the moderating influence of the Gulf, also begin to feel the colder touch of approaching winter. The reduced humidity, which began its descent in October, further drops, resulting in clearer and brisker nights.

Rainfall in November tends to be more uniform, with prolonged drizzles replacing the brief but intense summer showers. While the hurricane season's tail end might still affect the southern parts of Alabama, the chances are considerably reduced by this time of the year. The rain, combined with the drop in temperatures, can lead to a damp cold, particularly noticeable in the mornings.

November is mild in Alabama, with average temperatures in the 40°F (4.4°C) to 71°F (21.7°C) zone. The conditions are pleasant, with daily sunshine of at least 6 hours. Anniston in central Alabama registers mild temperatures between 42°F (5.6°C) to 65°F (18.3°C), while Mobile on the Gulf coast is comfortable between 49°F (9.4°C) to 71°F (21.7°C).

Drawing a comparison, November serves as a prelude to the colder conditions of December. While it heralds the winter's onset, it doesn't quite possess the full coldness that December can bring. Places like Valley Head, accustomed to cooler climes, might even witness the season's first snowfall, especially as the month nears its end. As November concludes, Alabama prepares itself for the heart of winter, with December ushering in the season's peak coldness and potential snowfall in certain regions.
