Halloween forecast: Pleasant for trick-or-treaters

Late night: Expect a drop to the 50s.

Get the Halloween masks, makeup and orange pumpkin baskets ready.

Metro Atlanta is set to get plenty of sunshine, clear skies and temps in the 60s during those prime trick-or-treating hours.

“The weather is certainly going to cooperate” Tuesday, Channel 2 meteorologist Brad Nitz said.

Atlanta is expected to reach a high of 68 degrees by 4 p.m., and temperatures are forecast to stay in the 60s through about 8:30 p.m., Nitz said.

Parents shouldn’t worry about packing an umbrella or a coat.

According to the latest forecast, there’s no threat of rain or freezing temperatures.

For those hitting up their neighbors for candy later in the evening, temps are expected to drop to the upper 50s about 9 p.m. and continue to fall overnight.
