Mild and Mostly Dry: A Pleasant Mid-November Weekend
The short version for Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, and Scottsdale: a mild, mostly dry November weekend. Expect highs in the mid-to-upper 70s both days, overnight lows in the mid-50s to around 60°F, and only a slight chance of a passing shower. The outdoor plans mostly stick, with a cozy indoor backup standing by.
Here is the weekend across the Eastside: mild and mostly dry. Saturday, November 14 and Sunday, November 15 both see partly sunny skies with highs in the mid-to-upper 70s, roughly 74 to 78°F across Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, and Scottsdale. Overnight lows settle into the mid-50s to around 60°F after sunset. The National Weather Service puts the rain chance near 20 percent both days, a bit higher in a few East Valley spots, so lead with the outdoor plans and let the sky be the tiebreaker. Either way: light layers and sunscreen for midday, and a light jacket for the evening.

A gentle, mild day across the Eastside. Farmers markets in the morning, a patio table at lunch, and if the sky looks interesting mid-afternoon, keep a cozy indoor backup nearby.

- High: Near 77°F

Round two of a mild November weekend. Great for an early trailhead start, a second patio date, or a slow stroll before sunset.
How to Plan the Weekend
Plan for a little of everything: the odds strongly favor dry and sunny, but a passing sprinkle is possible, so lead with outdoor plans and keep an indoor stop in your back pocket. Saturday morning is made for the Gilbert Farmers Market at Chandler-Gilbert Community College (8 a.m. to noon), and Canal Convergence wraps its final weekend along the Scottsdale Waterfront after dark both nights, free and glowing. If a shower finds you mid-afternoon, duck into a cozy coffee shop or catch the Mesa Fall Arts and Crafts Fair at the Mesa Historical Museum. Sunday, the Skyline East Mesa Farmers Market (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) is an easy outdoor loop. Toss a light jacket in the car for the evening, when lows dip into the 50s, and enjoy a mild November weekend.
