Halloween weather: Hourly London forecast as thousands go trick-or-treating

Thousands of Londoners are digging out their ghostly gladrags as the capital leans into Halloween.

From Brent to Croydon, Hillingdon to Havering, children will be out in force trick-or-treating whatever the weather.

Meanwhile older revellers dressed in their scariest outfits will be flocking into central London as pubs and venues through open their doors to Halloween parties.

Londoners already getting into the Halloween spirit include Myleene Klass, who took to the Tube in a spectacular Pokemon outfit.

But what does the weather hold in store for those of us heading out this evening?

In a nutshell, it looks like being a fairly damp one in the capital. Last-minute costume makers might want to somehow incorporate a waterproof jacket into their ghost, zombie and skeleton looks.

The good news it it’s likely to be fairly mild with the temperature expected to hold up at around 15C through the evening.

This is how the Met Office (as of 3pm) sees the rest of the day and night panning out in London:

4pm: Light rain, 70% chance of precipitation, 15C

5pm: Light rain, 70% chance of precipitation, 15C

6pm: Heavy rain, 80% chance of precipitation, 15C

7pm: Heavy rain, 60% chance of precipitation, 15C

8pm: Light rain, 60% chance of precipitation, 15C

9pm: Mostly dry, 50% chance of precipitation, 15C

10pm: Mostly dry, 50% chance of precipitation, 15C

11pm: Mostly dry, 40% chance of precipitation, 15C
