November marks a meaningful transition for golf in Jackson, Mississippi — you're leaving behind October's warmth and heading toward December's colder, wetter conditions. The average high drops to 67F, sitting in the lower end of the ideal 60-80F range, while lows dip to 48F. That 19-degree daily swing matters: morning rounds can feel genuinely cold, so your start time makes a bigger difference than it did a month ago.
Despite the cooling trend, November holds up well on other measures. At 11 precipitation days it ranks as the second-driest month of the year, and peak wind of 9.9 mph ties it with May as the fifth-calmest. You're not getting October's shirtsleeve comfort, but you're also not yet dealing with December's heavier rain or stronger gusts. The window is still solid — just plan your tee time accordingly.
With lows at 48F and a 19-degree daily swing, booking afternoon tee times — ideally after 11 AM — will let temperatures climb meaningfully from their overnight floor. Given that November is the second-driest month of the year, you have more flexibility on date selection than in December, so prioritize time of day over scrambling for a specific date. See how conditions rate hour by hour on our playability scale.
October is the cleaner month: its 79F average high is 12 degrees warmer and it sees 3 fewer rainy days, making it the easier choice if flexibility allows. November's conditions hold reasonably steady through the month before December tightens the screws — another 6-degree drop in the average high, 3 more precipitation days, and winds climbing from 9.9 to 10.8 mph. November sits in a real middle ground: noticeably cooler than October, but not yet as consistently disrupted as December.
Climate normals show the long-term picture, but day-to-day weather varies. Check today's live golf weather score for Jackson, MS for the current playability rating, hourly wind, temperature, and the recommended tee time window.

November is a functional shoulder-season month — the 67F average high keeps conditions in the lower end of the comfortable range, and at just 11 precipitation days it's actually the second-driest month of the year in Jackson. The main adjustment is the 19-degree gap between morning lows of 48F and afternoon highs, which makes tee time selection more important than in October.
October is noticeably more comfortable, with an average high of 79F versus November's 67F and 3 fewer rainy days. Peak wind is nearly identical — 9.4 mph in October versus 9.9 mph in November — so wind is not the differentiator. If you're deciding between the two months, October offers more margin, but November's low rain-day count still makes it a workable option.
