Weather You Must Know, Before Trick-or-Treating You Go

By Geoff Bansen

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Friday is finally here,
And Halloween time is near!
It's that one spooky day a year,
Halloween Weather to strike others with some fear.

But the weather you must know
Before Trick-or-Treating you go...

Early sun gives way to clouds
And when getting candy with the crowds
Of spooky things that make people scream and cry,
Conditions will be mainly dry.

Bring along that sweatshirt, it will be cool
Whether you're a ghost or a zombie, a goblin or ghoul.

But while you enjoy your candy in all of its glory
The weekend brings a different story
A monster of a storm is a brewin'
Your Saturday it could certainly ruin.

The track of this storm is undoubtedly tricky
But one thing's for sure, it'll be downright icky!
Damp, cold and breezy, more specifically
But the heaviest rain should stay out to sea.

Sunday is dry and the sky will be brightening
But the wind and the cold sure will be frightening!
If it's warmer temperatures that you seek,
We'll be back in the 60s early next week.

Happy Halloween everyone!

Today's Highs:
Philly - 57
Shore - 58
Poconos - 48
