Weather in November

Yosemite National Park is a beautiful and magical place, regardless of the time of year. If you're looking for a great fall getaway, visiting Yosemite in November is an excellent option. The tourist season has trickled off at this time, causing much thinner crowds and fewer lines at the local attractions. The weather is cool. but not freezing, winters are very mild and Yosemite see’s little snow but not until Jan or Feb generally, it does not stick around for too long. The park is so much quieter and you don't have the traffic you deal with in Spring & Summer. The Mariposa Groves will be open which is a great day hike plus there will be plenty of accessible hikes in the valley to explore. Low 60’s during the day, low 40’s at night.
