What November feels like
The Newport Mansions Christmas season opens toward the end of November, which is essentially the town's entire winter economy in one event. The bay is still carrying warmth left over from summer, so it takes until deep winter for the wind to turn genuinely punishing.
Expect about 6 days with real rain — enough to notice, not enough to plan around. about 9 nights dip below freezing.
Can you swim?
The ocean runs about 54° — frigid — locals in wetsuits only.
