November weather forecast
Kansas, USA

November is a month of transition for Kansas, as the state grapples with the last vestiges of autumn while welcoming the initial inklings of winter. Temperatures during this month further recede, typically oscillating between 34°F (1.1°C) and 55°F (12.8°C), a clear indication of the impending cold season.

Rainfall in November lessens as the state progresses toward its colder, drier months. Western Kansas records precipitation levels from 0.5" (13mm) to 2" (51mm). Meanwhile, the eastern parts, although still more humid than the west, register rainfall from 1.5" (38mm) to 3" (76mm). This shift in weather patterns hints at the possibility of snow, especially toward the end of the month in the state's northern and western areas.

The winds of November, cooler and sometimes biting, continue to sweep across the plains, making their winter intentions clear. They carry with them an occasional hint of snow or frost, especially in the northwest, indicating the need to gear up for the impending frosty season.

Evenings and nights grow progressively colder as November advances. Frost becomes a common sight across the state, with the northwest regions experiencing it more frequently. In the southern areas, while nights are indisputably cooler, the onset of consistent frosty mornings is typically delayed until the month's end.

The days of November in Kansas are noticeably shorter, with the sun setting earlier and casting a cooler, more muted light over the landscape. The vibrant fall foliage of October gives way to barren trees and dormant fields, a stark contrast to the colorful panorama of the preceding months.

While the brilliance of autumn foliage has mostly faded, November offers its own unique charm. The month is marked by preparations for the winter - farmers button up their fields, residents gather firewood, and winter clothing becomes essential. Outdoor activities shift in nature, focusing on early winter pursuits and preparations for the upcoming holiday season. With Thanksgiving at its tail end, November is also a time of gratitude, reflection, and family gatherings, offering warmth in the face of the descending cold.
