Although in general November was a mild month, overall there was a cooling as one would expect in late Autumn. It was another wet month with 156mm of rain. Somewhat higher than the 1981-2010 November average for Dorset of 109mm.
Looking ahead there are some interesting developments building in the Arctic which could well start to show their hand during the xmas to new year period and beyond.
