Halloween weather across the U.S. obviously varies a lot. “In the United States, the spooky celebration, well known for its weather variations from year to year, sees normal high temperatures ranging from the 40s to the 80s and normal lows ranging from the teens to the 70s across the contiguous states alone,” Weather Nation TV notes. They add that, “Many U.S. locations experience drastic temperature swings throughout the month of October.”
What else is interesting, and kind of funny, is that no matter the weather, a 2021 YouGov poll discovered that roughly one in five adults, about 21% of participants, have the porch lights off and pretend not to be home on Halloween evening when trick-or-treaters are welking around. I love passing out candy on Halloween, but the past few years have brought pretty bad weather where I live, so I’ve opted not to do it. I do feel bad for kids who miss out on a real Halloween due to bad weather, whether that’s cold conditions, rain or any other kind of bad weather event. Finally, according to the Library of Congress, historians believe that trick-or-treating was originally called “belsnickeling,” meaning a German-American Christmas tradition where kids dressed up in costumes and traveled to their neighbors’ homes to see if they could guess who they were all dressed up.
As for the Georgia weather forecast, it’s pretty much perfect. According to the weather experts at The Weather Channel, the state is expected to be near 80 degrees for a high on Halloween and have lows in the lower 60s with no rain. The big part of this forecast that should make parents happy is having no rain, since it can be really frustrating to get little kids all dressed up for the holiday only to have to wear a raincoat while they’re walking around, getting candy from neighbors. The entire forecast for the next seven days, actually, calls for sunny or partly cloudy skies and highs in the upper 70s or lower 80s, so enjoy it.
