After warm summers and a relatively warm start to fall for many, November turned a corner and ranked among the top 10 coolest on record for 184 cities around the nation.

Of those, 11 cities ranked as their coldest November -- all in the Intermountain West. Elko, Nevada, Great Falls, Montana, Jackson, Wyoming and the aptly named Chilly, Idaho, all set records, according to FOX Weather Senior Data Specialist Shane Brown.

Olympia, Washington (3rd), Spokane, Washington (4th), Pocatello, Idaho (5th), Seattle (6th) and Sacramento, California (9th) were among the other 173 towns finishing November among their top 10 coolest.

With the balance of a warm October, no city registered their coldest Meteorological Autumn, which spans from Sept. 1 to Nov. 30. Just 22 spots ranked in the top 10, including Jackson, Wyoming at 3rd, Greensboro, Alabama at 6th and Santa Fe, New Mexico at 10th.

New England felt the warmth as well, with Nantucket, Massachusetts ranking their warmest November. Portland, Maine hit their 5th warmest, while Boston ranked 7th and Newark ranked 8th.

Many of those same cities ranked in their top 10 warmest Meteorological Autumn, with Miami at 2nd once again and Fort Myers, Florida at No. 4 and Orlando at No. 8. But thanks to a warm start, some cities like Seattle made the warm autumn list (No. 9) despite making the cool November list (No. 6),

For all of Meteorological Autumn, Orlando had its wettest September-through-November period, thanks in part to Hurricanes Ian and Nicole. Tampa (7th), Melbourne, Florida (9th) and Daytona Beach (9th) made the list.
