The weather in November up at Hotham is more mild than at other times of the year but diurnal temperature swings can be significant so mentally and physically prepare yourself for that.  Snow is very unlikely. You should independently be checking the forecast in the days approaching the race, and they (event organisers) will probably mention most recent forecasts it in the emails.
