Warm enough for summer clothes, with a layer for cooler evenings

Miami is substantially warmer than London in November: the average daytime high is 15.4°C higher. With 75% of days reaching 25°C, this is a sensible month if you want to spend time outdoors in light clothing rather than chase intense heat. Humidity averages 72%, though, so it can still feel close, especially around midday. Choose loose, breathable clothes and leave room for breaks from the heat. Evenings are generally warm enough to sit outside comfortably, but pack a light jumper or jacket: the coldest 10% of nights fall to 17.4°C or below. It suits travellers who want warmth but would rather not plan their holiday around very hot afternoons.

Plan for sunshine and rain, not an entirely dry holiday

November brings about 9 rainy days, so rain is a practical consideration rather than something to ignore. Keep outdoor plans movable and carry a light waterproof that will not feel too heavy in warm, humid weather. There is about 5.5 h of sunshine within 10.7 h of daylight each day, which leaves scope for time outside but does not promise clear skies throughout. Put swimming and other weather-dependent plans into the brighter spells, and avoid making every day depend on staying dry. This is a reasonable trade-off if warmth matters more to you than guaranteed sunshine. If rain would spoil the trip, November is a less convincing choice.
