Question
What weather should I expect?
Answer
Texas can be quite unpredictable. Typically, Dallas weather in late November is usually pleasant! You can expect comfortable days in the low 70s (around 21°C), but pack a light jacket or sweater for cooler evenings, which can dip down to the mid 40s (around 7°C). There's a chance of rain, but it typically doesn't rain much during this time.
