What to pack

What November feels like

The clocks go back and the workday suddenly ends in the dark, which locals handle by moving everything indoors and lighting it well. The Marathon takes the first Sunday and closes streets across all five boroughs; Thanksgiving week fills midtown with balloons and everybody else's relatives.

Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around.
