Weather in Ludhiana in November

India · 20-year averages, November

Prime time. If you get to pick your dates, November is the one. Highs average 27.8 °C, lows 13.5 °C, and rain falls on 1 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

November ranks 2 of 12 in Ludhiana. Only December scores clearly higher, and the difference is small enough to be settled by price rather than weather.

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

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 5 days top 30 °C — hot spells arrive, but they break. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 35.9 °C and the coldest night fell to 5.7 °C.

November is dependably dry, and that reliability is the point: across the twenty years measured, the wettest November on record still only managed 28 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 9 mm. Rain simply is not the variable that decides this trip — heat, crowds and cost are.

Wind is light at 5.1 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and the air is dry at 40% humidity, which makes the heat far more bearable than the same figure somewhere humid — and dehydrates you faster than you expect.

How November sits in the year

The month is on the way down: 5.3 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 5 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.

Daylight in November

November sits at the dark end of Ludhiana'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 — 35.8 °C between the warmest afternoons and the coldest nights, wider than any coastal city at this latitude would manage. Within November itself the daily swing is 14.3 °C, so mornings and afternoons need different clothes.

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 Ludhiana versus nearby

If Ludhiana is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Chandigarh is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, the same number of rain days. Shimla is the weaker option in November — 11.7 °C cooler, the same number of rain days.

So: November is effectively as good as it gets here — 2 points behind December, which is inside the margin where the weather stops being the deciding factor and price starts being it.
