Weather in Tulsa in November

A good month. November is a solid month to be in Tulsa. Highs average 16.4 °C, lows 4.3 °C, and rain falls on 6 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

November ranks 3 of 12 in Tulsa. Only October scores clearly higher, and the difference is small enough to be settled by price rather than weather.

Rain falls on only 6 days, so an itinerary with no wet-weather fallback is a reasonable risk. Pack for 16.4 °C days and 4.3 °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: 6 nights fall below freezing. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 29.7 °C and the coldest night fell to -8.1 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 54 mm — roughly 100% of the month's rain in one day.

November is moderately variable: 6 mm in the driest year against 161 mm in the wettest, around an average of 54 mm. Roughly two Novembers in three land near that average, and the third does something else entirely.

Wind is light at 12.4 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 73%.

How November sits in the year

The month is on the way down: 6.8 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 6.6 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.

Daylight in November

10.3 hours of daylight, losing 0.8 hours across the month. That is between Tulsa's extremes of 14.6 and 9.7 hours, so days are long enough not to constrain the plan.

An inland climate

With no coast nearby, the year swings a fair way — 37.2 °C between the warmest afternoons and the coldest nights, wider than any coastal city at this latitude would manage.

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 Tulsa versus nearby

If Tulsa is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Oklahoma City is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 1 day less rain. Wichita is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 2 days less rain.

So: November is effectively as good as it gets here — 5 points behind October, which is inside the margin where the weather stops being the deciding factor and price starts being it.
