Weather in Bhubaneswar in November
India · 20-year averages, November
Prime time. November is about as good as Bhubaneswar gets. Highs average 27.5 °C, lows 17.1 °C, and rain falls on 2 days — nothing in the month is working against you.
November ranks 3 of 12 in Bhubaneswar. Only December scores clearly higher, and the difference is small enough to be settled by price rather than weather.
Rain falls on only 2 days, so an itinerary with no wet-weather fallback is a reasonable risk. Nothing specialised needed — this is the month you pack for the trip rather than for the weather.
What the averages hide
The averages here are honest — no hidden extremes worth planning around. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 31.2 °C and the coldest night fell to 10.8 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 53 mm — roughly 230% of the month's rain in one day.
This is the volatile part. November rainfall has ranged from 0 mm to 114 mm across the twenty years measured — a 114 mm spread around an average of 23 mm. The average is real but almost no individual November looks like it, so treat the figure as the middle of a wide range rather than a forecast.
Wind is light at 4.5 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity runs at 79%, high enough to notice on the warm days without dominating them.
How November sits in the year
The month is on the way down: 2.1 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 2 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip. Rain has already shifted: 11 days fewer than October had.
Daylight in November
November sits at the dark end of Bhubaneswar's year — 11.2 hours of daylight against 13.4 at midsummer, losing 0.4 hours across the month. Sightseeing days are genuinely shorter, and an itinerary built for summer will not fit.
An inland climate
With no coast nearby, the year swings a fair way — 27.9 °C between the warmest afternoons and the coldest nights, wider than any coastal city at this latitude would manage.
How busy it gets
Peak season. Expect the highest prices of the year and to be booking well ahead.
Crowd levels are estimated from climate desirability and school-holiday calendars, not from visitor numbers.
November in Bhubaneswar versus nearby
If Bhubaneswar is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Jamshedpur is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, the same number of rain days. Ranchi is close enough to be a coin toss — 3.1 °C cooler, 1 day less rain.
So: November is effectively as good as it gets here — 5 points behind December, which is inside the margin where the weather stops being the deciding factor and price starts being it.
