Trick Or Treat, Mother Nature: 2021 Halloween Forecast For Arvada

ARVADA, CO — Before the town’s cutest witches and goblins take to Arvada streets in search of Halloween’s sweetest bounty, it’s a good idea for parents to check out what Mother Nature has in store for our community’s annual trick-or-treating festivities.

Trick-or-treating in Arvada is planned for the evening of Sunday, Oct. 31. Considering the event is just days away, there's a good chance we might luck out when it comes to the weather.

As you head out on Sunday evening, expect clouds and chilly temperatures. AccuWeather predicts that temperatures will dip to 35 degrees in the evening, down from an afternoon high of 50 degrees.

However, you likely won't need to pack umbrellas and rain jackets — the chance of precipitation is currently only 25 percent.

Though Halloween is expected to be chilly, the days leading up to the holiday will be significantly warmer. Temperatures on Thursday will be in the low 60s, and they will rise to the mid 60s on Friday and Saturday before cooling down in time for trick-or-treating.
