Berlin Weather in November

Berlin's continental climate is moderated by its extensive network of rivers, lakes, and urban forests that cover nearly a third of the city's area. The flat glacial landscape of the North European Plain means wind flows largely unimpeded across the city, but dense inner-city districts create significant urban heat islands while the surrounding forests and waterways of the Havel and Spree rivers provide notable cooling corridors. Winters can be harsh with cold easterly winds from the Eurasian steppe, while summers bring increasing heat extremes that are amplified in the heavily built-up central districts.

Cooling down. Low season for many destinations — great value.

Berlin has cold, grey winters and surprisingly warm summers. The city's landlocked continental location means bigger temperature swings than coastal European cities. Berlin's renowned nightlife and outdoor bar culture thrives June–September.
