What November feels like

November is the quietest stretch in the Adirondacks — hunting season in the woods, nothing running on the mountain, and the lakes waiting to freeze. Snow starts accumulating toward the end, but not enough yet to count on for anything beyond atmosphere.

Winter is doing its thing: 9.6 in of snow in a typical November, with fresh snow on about 7 days. about 24 nights dip below freezing.
