Eerily chilly into Halloween, at least sunshine prevails the entire weekend

BURLINGTON, Vt. (WCAX) - Our cool-down brings a cloudier but crisp finish to October across Vermont and northern New York, followed by a sunny Halloween weekend. A Lake Wind Advisory remains in effect today as northwesterly winds build waves on Lake Champlain. Dry leaves and breezy conditions also raise fire weather concerns, even after the recent showers. Temperatures will gradually climb into the 60s early next week before shower chances return later in the week.

Buffalo Will See The Darkest Morning Of The Year This Week

Just in case you haven't noticed it yet this month, the amount of sunlight we have in the morning hours has been getting shorter and shorter. Early risers and kids waiting for the bus have been spending more time in the dark as the sun rises later and later each day.

Halloween weather in NY: See the forecast for trick-or-treating

Much of New York is forecast to have dry, mostly sunny weather for Halloween on Saturday, Oct. 31, but trick-or-treaters should prepare for chilly temperatures after dusk. Daytime highs across the state are expected to reach the upper 50s to low 60s, with overnight lows ranging from around 30 to the mid-40s, according to the National Weather Service . Temperatures will drop relatively quickly after sunset, so families may want to add an extra layer under their costumes. The good news: Rain and soggy costumes are unlikely this Halloween, unlike the drenching many Western New Yorkers experienced in 2025. “Halloween is one of those holidays when the weather can make a big difference in how families plan their evening,” AccuWeather lead long-range forecaster Paul Pastelok said in a news release . Here's the latest forecast for Halloween across New York, which is several degrees cooler than forecasters had predicted earlier this week. Halloween forecast for New York cities Albany: Sunny, with a high near 57; mostly clear overnight, with a low near 30. Binghamton: Mostly sunny, with a high near 57; partly cloudy overnight, with a low of 33. Buffalo: Mostly sunny, with a high near 58; partly cloudy overnight,
