Weather in Teni in November

Shoulder season. November sits in between. You will get good days and you will lose some. You should expect rain on 19 days of the month, which is more days wet than dry.

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

Rain on 19 days, 5 of them heavy. Enough to need a plan B, not enough to need a plan around it. Natural fibres and a second shirt for the day. At 86% nothing dries, including you.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 6 days top 30 °C — hot spells arrive, but they break. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 34.6 °C and the coldest night fell to 15.8 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 61 mm — roughly 39% of the month's rain in one day.

November is moderately variable: 34 mm in the driest year against 310 mm in the wettest, around an average of 155 mm. Roughly two Novembers in three land near that average, and the third does something else entirely.

Wind is light at 4.1 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity at 86% is the real story though — it is the number that decides how the day feels, not the 28.7 °C.

How November sits in the year

Temperatures hold steady either side: 30.5 °C in October, 28.7 here, 28.5 in December. Nothing about the timing within the month matters much. Rain is the thing that moves: December brings 11 days less of it, so pushing the dates later buys drier weather.

Daylight in November

Teni sits close enough to the equator that daylight barely moves all year — 11.7 hours in November, against a range of just 1.2 hours across the whole calendar. Sunrise and sunset land at roughly the same time whenever you come.

An inland climate

Despite being inland, the year stays fairly even: 17.8 °C between the year's warmest afternoons and coldest nights.

How busy it gets

Quiet. Few other visitors, cheaper rooms, and a real chance some seasonal operators are shut.

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

November in Teni versus nearby

If Teni is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Munnar is a better bet in November — 7.8 °C cooler, the same number of rain days. Madurai is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, the same number of rain days.

So: November is a compromise. January is 29 points better and is what Teni is actually like at its best — worth moving the trip for if that is possible, and worth adjusting expectations for if it is not.
