Layering is essential, with thermal undergarments, followed by warm clothing, and finally, the spooky costumes. Don’t forget the gloves, hats, and a pair of sturdy boots to keep the toes warm. Reflective tapes on costumes or carrying glow sticks can ensure visibility on the somewhat chilly and possibly flurry-filled streets.

Tonight’s Sky:

As Halloween night falls, the sky is expected to clear, perhaps to make way for the witches’ broom flights. The wind, however, continues its cold hum from the southwest at 20 km/h. Night-time temperatures are poised at -7°C with a wind chill making it feel like -14°C as the night progresses.
