Lackawanna Moves Up Trick-or-Treating On Halloween

The weather has been a big worry for parents and kids during trick-or-treating tomorrow. It's expected to rain and a high wind watch will follow a cold front by tomorrow night.

According to WIVB, Lackawanna Mayor Geoffrey Szymanski says the time for trick or treating will move ahead a half-hour.

The trick-or-treating will take place from 5:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The decision was made because of the warmer temperatures earlier in the evening and the "bad" weather isn't expected until after 8 p.m.

“The following day is supposed to be very windy with temperatures (windchills) near freezing. Parents/Guardians: please check all candy before the kids eat. And remember, candy is a snack and is not to be considered a meal or nutritious. Also, with the wind gusts to be up to 60 mph (late Thursday/early Friday), please secure all items that can go airborne, including flags on your home,” Szymanski added.
