The Weather Network's Halloween Forecast-- should Canadians be frightened?

OAKVILLE, ON, Oct. 26, 2017 /CNW/ - After experiencing freakishly warm temperatures during parts of the fall, some Canadian trick-or-treaters could be startled by the cold this Halloween.

"With fall in Canada, you're never quite sure what's lurking behind the corner," said Chris Scott, Chief Meteorologist at The Weather Network. "In the final days leading up to Halloween, conditions will vary sharply across Canada and this active weather pattern has the potential for a few surprises, so be sure to check the forecast frequently."  

In addition to paying close attention to the weather, Canadians are encouraged to take note of the sunset times in their area. If planning to trick-or-treat after dark, think about adding reflective tape to costumes or incorporating glow sticks to make your little ones more visible to drivers. And, because nothing ruins a great costume like a bulky jacket, remember to help your kids stay warm by layering clothing under their outfits.  

Since it's scary how fast a weather forecast can change in the fall, parents should stay prepared by visiting www.theweathernetwork.com or by downloading The Weather Network App. Canadians can also upload photos and videos of their spooky decorations and costumes, and share them with The Weather Network on Twitter and Facebook using #ScareYourWeather.
