Weather in Thanh Hóa in November
Vietnam · 20-year averages, November
Prime time. If you get to pick your dates, November is the one. Highs average 25.6 °C, lows 18.2 °C, and rain falls on 9 days — nothing in the month is working against you.
November ranks 4 of 12 in Thanh Hóa: past the worst of the year but short of February, which is the month to book if the dates are open.
Rain on 9 days, 2 of them heavy. Enough to need a plan B, not enough to need a plan around it. 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 33.1 °C and the coldest night fell to 9 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 60 mm — roughly 92% of the month's rain in one day.
November is moderately variable: 5 mm in the driest year against 140 mm in the wettest, around an average of 65 mm. Roughly two Novembers in three land near that average, and the third does something else entirely.
Wind is light at 8.2 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity runs at 84%, high enough to notice on the warm days without dominating them.
How November sits in the year
The month is on the way down: 2.7 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 3.7 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip. Rain has already shifted: 6 days fewer than October had.
Daylight in November
November sits at the dark end of Thanh Hóa's year — 11.2 hours of daylight against 13.3 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 26.1 °C in November — warm enough to stay in as long as you like. The sea peaks at 30 °C in August and bottoms out at 21 °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 Thanh Hóa versus nearby
If Thanh Hóa is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Vinh is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 3 days more rain. Hanoi is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 2 days less rain.
So: November works, with February the better month by 9 points if the dates can move. If they cannot, nothing here should stop you booking.
