OAKLAND, California. – As the kids get ready to dress up as Taylor Swift and characters from Despicable Me this Halloween, they’ll no doubt have this looming question: Should I wear a jacket — maybe even a raincoat — over my costume?

The answer to the first question is probably yes.

KTVU meteorologist Steve Paulson said trick-or-treating hours will be cold on Thursday.

At 6pm it will be in the 50s and 60s.

Temperatures will dip into the 50s at 8 p.m.

And for the teenagers who are out until 10 p.m.? The forecast is between the 40s and 50s.

Will it rain on Halloween?

As for wet weather, meteorologists say it could rain in the Bay Area Wednesday night and then again Friday.

But it should be dry on Thursday.

For the most part, the Bay Area should escape the rain on Halloween, Paulson said.

But he did advise bundling.

“It won’t be very warm,” he says.
