Weather in Ushuaia in November

A hard month. November asks something of you. Go in knowing what. Highs sit at 9.9 °C and the day is short; this is an indoors-with-excursions month, not an outdoors-all-day one.

November ranks 5 of 12 in Ushuaia: past the worst of the year but short of February, which is the month to book if the dates are open.

This is persistent light rain rather than storms: 19 wet days but only 0 heavy ones. It rarely cancels anything outright, and it rarely fully clears either. A jacket beats an umbrella. Layers, and a genuinely waterproof outer — at 9.9 °C the difference between a good day and a miserable one is entirely down to what you are wearing.

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 19.7 °C and the coldest night fell to -1.6 °C.

November is statistically steady but not small: the year-to-year variation is modest in relative terms, yet the wettest November on record still delivered 103 mm against 29 mm in the driest. In a month this wet, even a tame spread is a lot of rain in absolute terms — the 62 mm average is a reasonable planning figure, not a promise.

Wind sits around 19.1 km/h — a steady breeze rather than a nuisance, and welcome on the warmer days, and humidity runs at 79%, which at 9.9 °C means damp rather than muggy — the kind of cold that gets into a coat and stays there.

How November sits in the year

Temperatures hold steady either side: 8.4 °C in October, 9.9 here, 11.4 in December. Nothing about the timing within the month matters much.

Daylight in November

16 hours of daylight, gaining 1.8 hours across the month. That is between Ushuaia's extremes of 17.3 and 7.2 hours, so days are long enough not to constrain the plan.

An inland climate

Despite being inland, the year stays fairly even: 13.2 °C between the year's warmest afternoons and coldest nights.

How busy it gets

Shoulder. The value months — prices ease off and you get the place closer to itself. November is the value pick for Ushuaia: it scores within 8 points of February without carrying February's prices.

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

November in Ushuaia versus nearby

If Ushuaia is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Puerto Montt is a better bet in November — 6.2 °C warmer, 7 days less rain. Mar del Plata is a better bet in November — 9.6 °C warmer, 9 days less rain.

So: November works, with February the better month by 8 points if the dates can move. If they cannot, nothing here should stop you booking.
