NYC Halloweekend weather forecast

FOX 5 NY's Liv Johnson goes over the weather forecast for New York City's Halloweekend.

A storm could dampen early Halloween festivities and soak trick-or-treaters in New York City.

Potential Halloweekend storm

What we know:

A coastal storm that has been traveling up the Eastern Seaboard is still in the forecast.

The FOX forecast center reports that parts of the Northeast will see 2-3 inches of rain on Thursday – the rainfall will be enhanced by moisture from Hurricane Melissa, which will be over 1,000 miles offshore.

These storms may linger for Halloween night this Friday, bringing rain and gusty winds for Halloween night in the city.

The National Weather Service's seven-day forecast also shows a chance for showers this Friday.
