08Editor's notes

What the numbers don't tell you

November is the start of the dry season and one of the most pleasant months, with afternoons around 27 °C, lower humidity, rain on about seven days and the Book Fair in mid-month filling downtown with authors and street stalls. Thanksgiving week is busy and expensive. The final days of the month see rates jump ahead of Art Basel. Hurricane season formally ends on 30 November, but late-season storms are rare.

Sea temperatures stay around 27 °C. The Miami Marathon registration, the Baynanza bay clean-up and the start of the winter concert season fill the calendar. The Everglades are at their best as the water recedes. The first week of November, before the Book Fair and Thanksgiving, is the quiet window with winter weather at autumn prices. December brings Art Basel and peak rates; see December.
