RI Weather: Frightening Halloween Outlook For Trick-Or-Treating
Another rainy week is in the forecast, leading up to what will likely be a wet night for little ghosts and goblins.
It's time to bring out your rain coats and umbrellas: another wet week is in the forecast for Rhode Island. The National Weather Service is forecasting rain throughout the day on Thursday — less than ideal weather for trick-or-treating.
A storm is expected to hit the region later this week, bringing steady showers starting Wednesday and intensifying over the following days.
Rain could start in Rhode Island as early as late Monday night. There's a chance of light rain around midnight, continuing throughout the day on Tuesday. The likelihood of rain increases on Wednesday night, with showers likely throughout the day on Thursday and Friday.
