Weather in Surat in November

A good month. November is a solid month to be in Surat. Daytime highs average 34.1 °C and the afternoon is not negotiable — outdoor plans move to early morning or evening.

November ranks 3 of 12 in Surat. Only January 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. Pack for heat management rather than style: shade, water, and a schedule that gives up on the middle of the day.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 10 days clear 35 °C, so a serious heatwave is normal rather than notable. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 39.2 °C and the coldest night fell to 14.1 °C.

This is the volatile part. November rainfall has ranged from 0 mm to 60 mm across the twenty years measured — a 60 mm spread around an average of 9 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 6.3 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 55%.

How November sits in the year

Temperatures hold steady either side: 33 °C in October, 34.1 here, 33.3 in December. Nothing about the timing within the month matters much.

Daylight in November

November sits at the dark end of Surat's year — 11.1 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.

Sea temperature

The sea sits at about 27.9 °C in November — warm enough that the water offers no relief from the heat. The sea peaks at 29.7 °C in June and bottoms out at 24.4 °C — water lags the air by a month or two, which is why the best swimming often comes after the best weather.

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 Surat versus nearby

If Surat is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Nashik is a better bet in November — 4.9 °C cooler, 1 day more rain. Virār is a better bet in November — 4.9 °C cooler, the same number of rain days.

So: November works, with January the better month by 9 points if the dates can move. If they cannot, nothing here should stop you booking.
