November means that winter once again creeps up in Disneyland Paris, France. The temperatures drop to some of the coldest seen throughout the year; there is much less sun seen; and the chance of rain increases. Be also prepared for the temperatures to drop even lower in the evenings, so wrap up warm if you want to explore the resort at night.
The average temperature in November is a mere 7°C, which is the coldest it has been since February. November is the fourth coldest month of the year, after the three following months. In the afternoons, the temperature rises to an average of 10°C, while at night it drops to a chilly 5°C. Both highs and lows decrease in the course of the month. November 1 is the warmest day and has an afternoon high of 13°C and a nighttime low of 6°C. The coldest day is November 30 with a high of only 8°C and a low of 3°C. November experiences frost once again.
In terms of total precipitation, November is comparable to October. It receives 51mm. There are a couple more rainy days though. November's 15 days of rainfall is the third highest number of all months of the year. Only December and January have more rainy days. The probability that rainfall occurs varies slightly in the course of the month. It increases from 56% to 60%. The most common type of precipitation, by far, is moderate rain, which is recorded on no less than 71% of all days with rainfall. Light rain comes in second with a 12% chance. And once again there is a slight chance of snowfall (4%).
November is one of the darkest months of the yearhe length of the days keeps on decreasing throughout the month. November 1, with 9.52 daylight hours, is the month's longest day, while November 30 is the shortest day with only 8.34 hours of daylight left.
Just like rainfall, the amount of cloud cover continues to increase as well. In the course of November, the percentage of cloud cover rises from 79% to 87%, which is very near the annual maximum of 89% that is observed on December 25.
Shorter days and much more cloud cover are why the number of sunshine hours per day drops to its annual low in November. Now, there are merely 2 sunshine hours per dayhe same number is also seen in December and February.
A mere 15-minute walk and a couple-minute free shuttle ride from Disneyland Paris, Disney's Sequoia Lodge offers accommodation in a forest setting. This is a wonderful place to come back to after a busy day on the park's rides and attractions and kick back next to a crackling fireplace. This 3-star hotel features stunning surroundings and a location on the shore of Lake Disney, a fun themed indoor pool, a sauna and steam bath, a full-service gym and a kid's play area. The cosy and warm atmospheres of the Redwood Bar and Lounge, Beaver Creek Tavern and Hunter's Grill invite you to go and have dinner and drinks in the evening.
The Cowboy Cookout Barbecue is an amazing dining venue if you're into country music or simply like cowboy themes. Housed in a huge barn at the far end of Frontierland, this is the largest restaurant in the area. The rustic, spacious wooden interior looks like it could actually come straight from the American Midwest. Food matches the restaurant's themehe meaty menu consists of burgers, fries, spare ribs, chili and barbecue chicken.
Sticking with the American Frontier theme, the Lucky Nugget Saloon is an 'authentic' Wild West saloon in the middle of Frontierland. This place serves extensive Tex-Mex all-you-can-eat buffet lunches. After a visit to the Lucky Nugget, you'll be good to go (or lie down!) for several hours.
With the cold weather taking its stand, this is not the ideal time to try out the water rides, as you won't be offered much sun to dry off in after a good soaking. However, Christmas starts early at Disneyland Paris and goes on for two months. Starting in November, there is a world of festivities to experience if you are at Disneyland at this time of the year.
All major attractions and rides are still open in November and are well-worth visiting as well, obviously! Make sure to visit the famous ones, such as the Sleeping Beauty Castle, the Pirates of the Caribbean, Big Thunder Mountain, and the Disneyland Railroad.
