Weather in Monterrey in November

Mexico · 20-year averages, November

Prime time. November is about as good as Monterrey gets. Highs average 29.1 °C, lows 14.8 °C, and rain falls on 4 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

November ranks 4 of 12 in Monterrey: past the worst of the year but short of January, which is the month to book if the dates are open.

Rain falls on only 4 days, so an itinerary with no wet-weather fallback is a reasonable risk. Pack for 29.1 °C days and 14.8 °C nights; the spread matters more here than any single number.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 14 days top 30 °C — hot spells arrive, but they break. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 38.1 °C and the coldest night fell to 1.4 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 35 mm — roughly 175% of the month's rain in one day.

This is the volatile part. November rainfall has ranged from 1 mm to 74 mm across the twenty years measured — a 73 mm spread around an average of 20 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 7.2 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 64%.

How November sits in the year

The month is on the way down: 3 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 1.9 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.

Daylight in November

November sits at the dark end of Monterrey's year — 10.9 hours of daylight against 13.7 at midsummer, losing 0.5 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 — 25.7 °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

Busy. Popular without being frantic; book the things you care about, improvise the rest.

Crowd levels are estimated from climate desirability and school-holiday calendars, not from visitor numbers.

November in Monterrey versus nearby

If Monterrey is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Laredo is close enough to be a coin toss — 3.2 °C cooler, the same number of rain days. Brownsville is close enough to be a coin toss — 2.4 °C cooler, 1 day more rain.

So: November works, with January the better month by 10 points if the dates can move. If they cannot, nothing here should stop you booking.
