Today’s Forecast:
Nothing too spooky about our Halloween forecast this year. During the day, we'll see plenty of sunshine, but the cold will remain the main weather story. By this evening, temperatures will be in the 30s & 40s for the younger kids trick or treating early. Later tonight for the older kids, temperatures will be falling into the 20s & 30s. Due to the cold, think layers and warmth when making those last minute tweaks to this year's Halloween costumes.
