Really???

Where abouts in MI are you? I'm on the SW side of the mitten. Lots of rain but not much wind so far. I think TorT is still on here tonight. Just curious

SE side ... we've have non stop rain and strong gusts of wind that have been blowing our toys all across the deck all day. TorT is still on here, too ... but I know a lot of other areas are post-poning. Just checked the radar and it looks like there will be a clearing for here around 7 ... keeping my fingers crossed!

I'm personally canceling because I was up too late watching the Red Sox..and I am tired!



Just kidding! If its dangerous to be out then I say cancel. No need to risk lives for candy.

I remember trick or treating in the blizzard/ice storm of 1991-I was 12. That was crazy. I think we stayed out for 3 hours walking around. 3 pairs of long johns, 2 pairs of sweat pants, 2 sweatshirts, our winter coats and snowpants, 3 pairs of thick socks, and the traction things that you slip on the bottom of your boots. Oh, and a face mask with a scarf over it. Everyone looked like mummys walking around. I'm glad it hasn't done that since. It was memorable, but not a memory I want every year.

We were tough kids & learn to deal with things are they happened. We never dodged things cause of weather. Sheez...

Postponing Halloween cause of rain is like postponing Christmas cause of snow. I say "If you want some candy, then **** it up buttercup & bring an umbrella!"

in utah they postpone it is its on sunday

It was totally cancelled here one year. We had a hurricane a week earlier. We were without electric for a week. There were no street lights and although most debris and branches had been cleaned up there was still some so it was too hazardous with no lights to see the debris. Weird thing was that later that evening the lights came on for the first time in a week.

Saturday seems like kind of a good idea. Then DCP will have to deal with the "day after" candy/staying up late day! Kind of loving that thought!

How odd!

We trick-or-treated in the rain. We didn't even use an umbrella.

Just think, next year Halloween is on Friday! No dealing with the day after!!!

You gotta be in Minnesota! My older son still talks about that Halloween. My boys were 5 & 3 and I was pregnant with my daughter and we only went to a few houses. But the older kids in the neighborhood sure had fun

our halloween was cancelled last year thanks to Hurricane Sandy. We had hurricane and then snow storm a few days later - it was a mess with downed wires, etc. but for a little rain that is really strange!

Yes! It definitely was fun-for the kids anyway, maybe not the parents. We probably should have used our ice skates to get around!

Right!! I have never heard of places postponing or changing the date until this year!! Here ToT is on the 31st no matter what- and there is no set time- that cracks me up too! If a porch light is on the house is good... If not- we'll egg it later! :: kidding!!!
