Dubai<\/a>\u00a0is a fantastic holiday<\/a>\u00a0location to head to in November<\/a>. The cooler\u00a0temperatures – well, the average temperature still hovers around a none too shoddy 18 to 31 degrees Celsius! – mean there\u2019s very little humidity and the heat is far less oppressive than during the rest of the year. There\u2019s also very little rainfall, just 0.2 inches expected over the entire month, and plenty of sunshine<\/a>. So, if you fancy escaping the increasingly chilly, dreary and drizzly weather in the UK<\/a> and sneaking in an early winter getaway before the Christmas merriment and mayhem, definitely ‘do’ Dubai.<\/p>\n
