RHODE ISLAND — Halloween is fast approaching, and after a week of dreary weather and a rare October nor'easter, many families are wondering how the weather will look for trick-or-treating.

Good news, Rhode Island: as of now, it looks like Rhode Island is in for a clear, if chilly Halloween night.

According to the National Weather Service, Sunday will be mostly sunny, with temperatures in the mid-60s during the day. After the sun sets — the time that really matters — temperatures are expected to fall into the high 40s, but with clear skies. That means it should be clear sailing for trick-or-treating, though you may want to add some extra layers underneath your little one's costume.
