What November feels like
By mid-November much of the Outer Cape has closed for the winter, and the answer to 'is anything open?' changes town by town. Nor'easters start showing up now; a big one puts spray over the Chatham fish pier and rearranges the beach overnight.
Expect about 7 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. about 11 nights dip below freezing.
Can you swim?
The ocean runs about 50° — frigid — locals in wetsuits only.
