From Boston to Philadelphia, near record heat probably on Halloween

For generations, trick-or-treaters across much of the U.S. have been faced with a dilemma: Wear a coat and ruin the effect of their costume, or leave the coat out and freeze. But Halloween this year will be different across much of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, with near-record heat forecast from Philadelphia to New York and Boston.

“I went to a Halloween party this weekend and one of our friends was wearing one of those inflatable suits. They said, ‘It’s actually quite nice in here with the fan blowing on me,'” said Torry Dooley, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Boston, which is expected to reach a high of 81F (27C) on Halloween. “So maybe you should just wear one.”
