In November, last-minute tee times in Seattle become a legitimate booking strategy rather than a fallback. With 20 precipitation days — tied for third-wettest on the calendar — and peak winds reaching 13.5 mph, the windiest reading of the year, availability opens up that simply doesn't exist in summer. Cancellations and no-shows run high, which means last-minute tee times become realistic. The average high sits at 50°F with a low of 41°F, so you're playing well below the 60–80°F comfort band from the first tee to the last.
That said, Seattle courses remain open and playable on the drier days scattered through the month. The 9°F daily swing means morning rounds start genuinely cold; afternoon windows after any rain clears tend to be the most forgiving slots. The Variable season tier here reflects real unpredictability — not just week to week, but sometimes hour to hour.
Because rain days are frequent and the wind is at its annual peak, expect elevated same-day and next-day availability as other golfers bail — booking 24–48 hours out rather than weeks ahead often works in November and may land you a better rate. Prioritize afternoon slots starting around 1 PM when overnight rain has had time to drain and temperatures have climbed as close to the 50°F high as they'll get. See how conditions rate hour by hour on our playability scale.
October plays noticeably better, with the average high 10°F warmer at 60°F, four fewer precipitation days, and peak winds 1.5 mph lower — it's the cleaner shoulder-season choice if you have flexibility. November and December are closer in feel than the calendar gap suggests: December drops only 4°F further to a 46°F high, adds two more precipitation days to reach 22, and comes in with essentially the same peak wind at 13.4 mph. If you're already willing to play November, December isn't a dramatic step down in conditions.

Yes, most public and municipal courses in Seattle stay open through November barring severe flooding or frost closures. With 20 precipitation days and a peak wind of 13.5 mph, some days are unplayable, but courses themselves rarely post full closures — they more often issue cart restrictions or preferred-lies rules on waterlogged fairways.
Expect a high of around 50°F and a low near 41°F, meaning you'll rarely warm up during a round the way you would in summer. Wind averages a peak of 13.5 mph — the highest of any month — so club selection will run at least one to two clubs longer than normal, particularly on exposed layouts near the water.
