How does a town "postpone" Halloween?  Does it mean no official events or are they arresting kids who go trick or treating on the 31st?  Raiding homes who give out candy on the non-official night?  

our town sent out a memo stating it's not a town event so they don't have the authority to move it, so it's on at the discretion of individual neighborhoods...if a neighborhood wants to move it fine, but otherwise it's game on.   Models look like we might get a break in the rain around go time anyway, wouldn't be too bad going out with temps in the upper 60's to near 70....on a separate topic-I would think in this day and age of  over the top "safety" and "protecting our kids from danger" they would have moved it to the last Sat or Sun of the month as a regular thing-less people rushing home from work, driving fast, kids out on a school night etc....but that's never happened.

That seems to be showing up more and more but I don't know if most people actually want that.  I love when it is on a weekend, but whatevs.    My area looks to be pretty wet this evening. So far our town is still proceeding with it happening.  Too bad the wind wasn't earlier   that would be fun (unless a branch falls on someone)

Can we reschedule Christmas if it looks like there’s going to be a Grinch storm?

ridicuolous.   Let parents decide not government.  Will be funny when it's not even raining in half those towns.

And from what i have seen, That's going to be the case, But lets just sensationalize all weather events and then relate it to AGW.

Those winds though, Can't have candy flying all over the place or the parents mixed drinks get spilled.

The winds won't be bad. According to the graphic above, just strong enough to tip over a garbage can. Now it doesn't specify if that's an empty or full garbage can, but I would guess that it takes 35 mph winds to tip over a garbage can.

That was more sarcasm, This has trended into NBD and should have been left alone.
