Portsmouth Trick or Treating Tonight

Trick of treating will take place on Monday night between 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. before the Portsmouth Halloween Parade.

Portsmouth kids will go Trick or Treating tonight in Portsmouth from 5 p.m. until 6:30 p.m. after this weekend's snowstorm postponed it on Sunday.

The overnight snowstorm resulted in the downing of many trees across roads and sidewalks. There are also several power outages that continue to affect some of neighborhoods and lighted traffic signals. The power company has advised that there may still be live power lines touching, or close to, the ground.

Due to public safety concerns, city officials decided the best option was to postpone until Monday evening.
