Laredo Faces Unusual Warmth While Northeast Braces for Cold Halloween

Halloween weather forecasts now span several regions, with conditions varying widely. Laredo is expected to be unusually warm and mostly dry, and October may rank among its driest on record; North Texas has its best chance of showers Friday into early Saturday. Southeast Louisiana could see weekend showers and thunderstorms, while drought and low humidity raise fire danger ahead of the rain, and king tides may cause minor coastal flooding. Maryland, New Jersey and the Pittsburgh area are forecast to have mostly dry, mild Halloween weather, with rain chances returning around New Jersey next week. New Hampshire will have a hard cold night before dry Halloween weather, with highs in the 50s to near 60. Daylight saving time ends Sunday, when clocks move back one hour.
