Weather in Chandigarh in November
India · 20-year averages, November
Prime time. If you get to pick your dates, November is the one. Highs average 27.4 °C, lows 14.4 °C, and rain falls on 1 days — nothing in the month is working against you.
November is the highest-scoring month of the twelve. The nearest rival is December, and the month at the other end of the year is June.
Rain falls on only 1 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 34.5 °C and the coldest night fell to 9.3 °C.
November is dependably dry, and that reliability is the point: across the twenty years measured, the wettest November on record still only managed 31 mm, and the driest managed 0 mm. There is no meaningful variability to plan around, which makes this one of the few months anywhere that you can build a fixed outdoor itinerary against without a fallback. The wettest single day in twenty years of Novembers brought 11 mm. Rain simply is not the variable that decides this trip — heat, crowds and cost are.
Wind is light at 6 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 43%.
How November sits in the year
The month is on the way down: 3.8 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 4.2 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.
Daylight in November
November sits at the dark end of Chandigarh's year — 10.6 hours of daylight against 14.1 at midsummer, losing 0.7 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 — 32.4 °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 Chandigarh versus nearby
If Chandigarh is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Shimla is the weaker option in November — 11.3 °C cooler, the same number of rain days. Ludhiana is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, the same number of rain days.
So: November is the answer for Chandigarh. If it is booked out or priced out, December is the next best thing at 0 points behind, and June is the month to keep off the shortlist.
