Unexpectedly Warm & Dry Halloween in Atlanta: What to Expect
It’s that time of the year again, Atlanta! Halloween is just around the corner, and this year’s weather brings a delightful surprise. Gone are the days of bundling up your tiny ghosts and goblins in over-layered costumes. This time, the weather forecast for Halloween promises an unseasonably warm and dry day, turning out to be quite a treat for many.
Morning Comfort: Starting the Day Right
Kicking off the day, you can expect comfortable temperatures around 60 degrees in the morning. Perfectly suited for a Halloween breakfast or brunch before diving into those Halloween activities. No need for any extra thermal layers as you step out; just enjoy the pleasant morning chill.
Afternoon Warmth: Almost Breaking Records!
As the day unfolds, temperatures will climb to a high of around 80 degrees in the afternoon! While we’re not quite hitting the record high for Halloween at 86 degrees, it certainly feels like we’re in the ballpark. This warm afternoon sets the stage for all those outdoor festivities—you can comfortably flaunt your costumes without the fear of freezing! Be it pumpkin patch hunts or outdoor Halloween parties, it’s the ideal weather for fun under the sun.
Evening Enjoyment: Perfect for Trick-or-Treating
Get ready for a mild and pleasant evening as well! Temperatures will linger in the upper 70s, just right for an outdoor dinner before the trick-or-treating begins. As the sun sets around 6:46 p.m., you’ll find the temperatures gradually dipping from the mid-70s to the low 70s. It’s the perfect setting for a Halloween night filled with joy, screams, and, of course, candy!
Basking in the Driest Month: A Historical Note
While some might be concerned over the ongoing dry streak, there’s no rain on the horizon for Halloween Day. This might sound like good news for your Halloween plans, but it also means we’re nearing a historic milestone. If Atlanta does not see any rain through Halloween, we’ll be wrapping up a 32-day dry streak—potentially labeling this as the driest month in history.
So, as you gear up for Halloween, remember that you won’t need those extra layers or waterproof gear. It might be one of the rare Halloweens where the weather plays along just perfectly.
