It is currently 33 degrees with a feels like of 26, and will drop even more once the sun sets.

How is the Halloween weather in your area?

It’s 40 degrees, windy, and the sun is hiding behind some clouds. I’m glad it’s not raining.

It's been raining for 3 days and in the 40's. It is suppose to get down to 32 tonight.

This is why I hate fall.....cold, no sun, winter is worse......

Bah, humbug......I swear I am a solar panel.....

55 degrees, cool, breezy and thank goodness I bought a lot of candy. We have had a lot of kids already... Love seeing the little ones in their costumes.

You sound like I used to....I hated fall because of what came after that. Then I hated summer because it was so short and I knew what was coming. Then I moved. Now I hate summer because it lasts so long and it's so dang hot. But the rest of the year is glorious. No place is perfect.

It was a beautiful, sunny day here, 60-ish. Now that the sun is setting, it's chilly (and windy) but not like when I was a child and Halloween almost always meant you needed multiple layers under your costume or your coat over it.

No trick or treaters yet. This will be our first Halloween in many years that we will not have a dog barking every time he/she heard footsteps on the porch. Our dogs were not fans of Halloween.

Foggy here. Hopefully the parents have their kids decked out in reflective gear and are accompanying. And everyone in town drives really slow!

NJ- outside NYC: almost 7PM, 50 degrees. Clear, light breeze. So far 3 kids- trick or treating together. I bought two bags of candy. Should have bought one.

Fewer and fewer kids each year. Maybe the young ones Trunk or Treat now rather than going door to door. I live in a neighborhood. My sons are grown (mid-20's). Most of the neighbors who have younger kids don't know me; maybe that's why the kids are not stopping here. The neighbors who do know me have kids that are either too old or two young to T or T.

My house is well lit with a few decorations.

There's a snap in the air in SE FL, and the kids have been out in force. They are so cute!

I am out of candy already and have had to switch off the porch light and unplug the jack o' lantern.

It's pretty close to freezing here and with the wind blowing is darn cold! There's never a lot of trick or treaters out here anyway. Most of them go to a near-by mall where there's Halloween activities and candy handouts...not to mention warmer and safer.

Metro DC it was in the 40s during the height, but it didn't feel cold. No wind at all. Very few kids had coats or sweathers on. Most had pretty elaborate costumes that were keeping them warm.

Alexa says it's 57° right now, chilly enough to need a jacket. I used to hate when we had to wear coats over our costumes.

I haven't see a trick or treeter for years. I don't even buy candy and I live in a typical suburban neighborhood. I dont know why we never have kids around.

NYC: it’s almost 9pm so Halloween is over for most kids. It was about 54 degrees, clear and dry, for T or T. Not one kid, teen or adult rang the bell!

i had a bag of 30 pieces of tootsie roll various candy types. Hate the stuff and bought it to give away, to keep myself from gorging. Now what?

I also prepared for kids with allergies who can’t have chocolate or nuts. I looked online for best candy for allergic kids. The website also covered factories free of allergen products. I got lollipops, skittles, and jelly beans. Those were recommended as safe for kids with food taboos.

Nice weather for costumes. Where were the kids this year?

The crowds have been dwindling in our neighborhood, too. Always have candy at the end of the night. And I buy the full-size bars at Costco!

55 degrees and dry here (Seattle area). Kids are just starting to come. I bought small bags of cookies this year for a change.
