Humidity
We base the humidity comfort level on the dew point, as it determines whether perspiration will evaporate from the skin, thereby cooling the body. Lower dew points feel drier and higher dew points feel more humid. Unlike temperature, which typically varies significantly between night and day, dew point tends to change more slowly, so while the temperature may drop at night, a muggy day is typically followed by a muggy night.
The chance that a given day will be muggy in Tequila is essentially constant during November, remaining around 0% throughout.
For reference, on August 30, the muggiest day of the year, there are muggy conditions 8% of the time, while on November 23, the least muggy day of the year, there are muggy conditions 0% of the time.
Wind
This section discusses the wide-area hourly average wind vector (speed and direction) at 10 meters above the ground. The wind experienced at any given location is highly dependent on local topography and other factors, and instantaneous wind speed and direction vary more widely than hourly averages.
The average hourly wind speed in Tequila is essentially constant during November, remaining within 0.1 miles per hour of 4.3 miles per hour throughout.
For reference, on April 17, the windiest day of the year, the daily average wind speed is 5.5 miles per hour, while on July 26, the calmest day of the year, the daily average wind speed is 3.5 miles per hour.
