Are We in For Scary Halloween Weather?
The National Weather Service is tracking a storm that could bring heavy wind and rain to the area early next week.
Trick-or-Treaters across the region are crossing their fingers.

“The potential continues for a very dangerous autumn storm system to affect the region early next week,” said a statement from the service. “This storm will be associated with what is currently Hurricane Sandy. This storm, if it moves toward us, will bring multiple threats to the region.”
