    Candies, costumes and decorations are all ready. Will the weather now cooperate for your Halloween celebrations?

    The country’s two wettest spots on Halloween (Thursday) will be the central U.S. and much of the Northwest.

    Although near-record temperatures are making news in some areas, forecasters said widespread cold snaps will be missing: “There are no significant concerns about snow, ice or cold across much of the country this year.” AccuWeather meteorologist Paul Pastelok said in an online prediction.

    Here’s how weather conditions will affect the goblins, ghosts and ghouls in your neighborhood on Halloween evening:

    Central US forecast: Rain, wind, tornadoes

    “Storms may occur from Houston north to Little Rock and Memphis, Tennessee,” Pastelok added, noting that the many showers and storms in this area may necessitate bringing an umbrella for trick-or-treating or even sheltering indoors.

    Further north, rain could mar festivities in parts of the Ohio Valley and Great Lakes region, including Detroit and Cleveland, he said.

    according to Storm Prediction CenterHazards associated with Halloween thunderstorms include “frequent lightning, severe thunderstorms, wind, hail, and a few tornadoes.” Cities where severe storms are most likely include Indianapolis, Memphis and Little Rock.

High temperatures Thursday are expected to range from the 70s in New England to around 80 degrees across much of the Mid-Atlantic, AccuWeather said.

    According to Kaiser, “High temperatures could top Halloween records in dozens of Northeastern cities, including Albany, New York; Hartford, Connecticut, and Philadelphia.”

    The Southeast will also see above-average temperatures: “People may need to bring their fans with them to Raleigh and Charlotte as temperatures will start in the 80s and drop into the 70s for trick-or-treating,” Pastelok said.

    Northwest forecast: Gloomy, snowy

    The gloomiest and coldest spot on Halloween night will likely be in the Pacific Northwest, where rain and even snow at altitudes are possible.

    AccuWeather said rain and cool temperatures from a strong cold front could create a double whammy in Seattle and Portland, forcing some costumes to be packed under jackets.

    Even snow is possible in the mountains: “Higher elevations above 600 meters in the Northwest can experience some of Mother Nature’s tricks in winter conditions,” Pastelok said.

    In the Southwest, AccuWeather says there won’t be any weather-related concerns as kids and adults fill neighborhood streets.
