What the numbers don't tell you
November is mild and mostly dry, with afternoons around 21 °C, the first rain possible late in the month on about three days, AFI Fest and Thanksgiving week bringing a spike in visitors. The Hollywood Christmas Parade follows on the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Outside the holiday week it is quiet and good value, with clear mountain views after the first rain.
The Dia de los Muertos celebrations at Hollywood Forever cemetery fill early November. The clocks go back on the first Sunday. Disneyland's holiday season begins mid-November. The ocean cools to 17 °C. Daylight ends before five. For the rainy season, the holiday lights and the Rose Parade preparations, see December.
