Weather in Thessaloníki in November

A good month. November is a solid month to be in Thessaloníki. Highs average 15.4 °C, lows 7.3 °C, and rain falls on 8 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

November ranks 6 of 12 in Thessaloníki: past the worst of the year but short of September, which is the month to book if the dates are open.

Rain on 8 days, 1 of them heavy. Enough to need a plan B, not enough to need a plan around it. Pack for 15.4 °C days and 7.3 °C nights; the spread matters more here than any single number.

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 25.3 °C and the coldest night fell to -3 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 28 mm — roughly 64% of the month's rain in one day.

November is moderately variable: 5 mm in the driest year against 98 mm in the wettest, around an average of 44 mm. Roughly two Novembers in three land near that average, and the third does something else entirely.

Wind is light at 7.4 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity runs at 79%, high enough to notice on the warm days without dominating them.

How November sits in the year

The month is on the way down: 5.8 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 5.5 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.

Daylight in November

10 hours of daylight, losing 1 hours across the month. That is between Thessaloníki's extremes of 15.1 and 9.3 hours, so days are long enough not to constrain the plan.

An inland climate

With no coast nearby, the year swings a fair way — 31.7 °C between the warmest afternoons and the coldest nights, wider than any coastal city at this latitude would manage.

How busy it gets

Shoulder. The value months — prices ease off and you get the place closer to itself.

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

November in Thessaloníki versus nearby

If Thessaloníki is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Lárisa is close enough to be a coin toss — 2.6 °C warmer, 1 day more rain. Volos is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, the same number of rain days.

So: November works, with September the better month by 15 points if the dates can move. If they cannot, nothing here should stop you booking.
