November weather forecast
Wisconsin, USA

November marks the onset of late autumn in Wisconsin, a time characterized by dropping temperatures and the transition to winter. In the north, temperatures usually fluctuate between 25°F (-3.9°C) and 40°F (4.4°C), whereas in the southern regions, they range from 30°F (-1.1°C) to 50°F (10°C). The month sees a considerable cooling compared to October, especially in nighttime temperatures, which can dip below freezing.

Precipitation in November transitions from rain to snow, especially in the northern and western regions. The state’s first significant snowfall often occur this month, though snow cover is generally not persistent. Flooding is rare, but the occasional winter storm can introduce challenging travel conditions. This is particularly true in the regions close to Lake Superior, which start to experience lake-effect snow.

Cities near Lake Michigan, such as Milwaukee, can experience milder conditions due to the lake's moderating effects, but these become increasingly limited as winter approaches. The lake can also generate cloud cover, leading to gloomier days.

Daylight dwindles rapidly, leading to shorter and often overcast days. This makes November less inviting for outdoor activities compared to the vibrant months of September and October. Recreational activities transition from hiking and apple picking to preparation for winter sports like skiing and snowboarding.

November plays a crucial role in Wisconsin agriculture as it marks the end of the harvest season. Fields are typically bare, and farmers turn their attention to preparing for winter by insulating buildings and caring for livestock. It's a month of finality for the growing season, and the rural landscape takes on a more subdued tone. November sets the stage for the deep freeze and snowy conditions that December and the ensuing winter months will bring.
