November Weather Averages

Sorted by popularity:

The Loire Valley bustles with activity in November, particularly in the beginning of the month. This is when grapes, apples and other fruits are harvested and a number of fun festivals take place. Although the temperatures drop rapidly now, as winter approaches, this is still a fine time to be outside and, if it happens to rain, to visit some historic sites in cities like Tours or Nantes.

What's The Weather Like In Loire Valley In November

Temperature

The average afternoon temperature in November is 10°C, while the mercury drops to a rather chilly low average of 4°C. Those temperatures tend to decrease in the course of the month, the first weeks being the warmest and most comfortable time of the month. The overall average temperature this month is 7°C, which is the coolest it's been since late March.

Rain

The total amount of rainfall is 56mm, which isn't high or low by any means. Precipitation tends to be exceptionally constant all-year round. There are 12 days with rainfall. There isn't any variation in the probability of rainfall occurring throughout the month. There is one main type of precipitation in November: moderate rain. It is recorded on no less than 68% of those 12 rainy days. Light rain and drizzle may occasionally occur as well, but are much less likely, respectively happening on 15% and 10% of those days with rainfall.

Cloud cover continues to increase in the course of this month, as it has done through September and October as well. The percentage rises from 77% to 84%, which means that the month ends with mostly cloudy skies.

Sunshine Hours

The length of the days decreases further, from 9.59 daylight hours on November 1 to 8.48 hours of daylight on 30th November.

Those two previous factors greatly influence the number of daily sunshine hours. In November, there are 3 hours of sunshine per day on average, which is the annual low, also seen in December and January.

Things To Do In Loire Valley In November

Exploration

November, with its revitalisingly cool 10°C afternoons, is a nice time of year for hiking or cycling. The crisp and fresh air is ideal to clear your mind; the roaring fire that awaits you in your accommodation at your return is perfectly cosy. These warm colours that are so typical of the autumn season can be enjoyed on hundreds of kilometres of hiking and cycling trails. That said; there are also a couple of other ways to see this gorgeous region. Horseback riding is a very popular activityhis is, in fact, one of France's main horse riding regions. Another suggested thing to do is going for a hot air balloon ride. There really is nothing like looking down on the Loire River, lined with castles and vineyards, from a balloon on a sunny November morning.

Troglodytes

A very peculiar attraction in the Loire Valley is the large number of dwellings that have been dug out into the landscape's rock faces and cliffs. These unique homes are known as troglodytes; they result from the locals' inclination to use their land to its utmost potential. By hewing out their own homes from the rocks, and selling the removed rocks, they in a way repaid the costs of their new house. These cave dwellings are a highlight that shouldn't be missed when visiting the Loire Valleyarticularly the troglodyte village of Rochemenier is fascinating.
