Halloween is approaching fast, and for all those looking to hit the town or do some trick-or-treating, you might want to bundle up. The Vancouver weather forecast is looking chilly and wet for Halloween weekend and Halloween night.

More rain and wind are expected to hit the province this weekend, after last weekend's devastating atmospheric river, but it's supposed to be at its worst before Halloween night.

If you're celebrating Halloween in B.C. this weekend though, try to stay dry. TWN said that less rain than last weekend is expected, but starting on Friday "two systems merge off the coast and bring additional soggy conditions."

Heavy winds are expected, which could mean power outages for those on the coast. The Lower Mainland could get 70 km/h gusts on Saturday, TWN warned.

Halloween night isn't looking bright and sunny either.

"A long-range pattern shows a series of troughs moving across British Columbia and the Prairies, allowing chilly, northerly air to sink south," The Weather Network said.

Southern B.C. might get more showers for Haloween too, so be prepared to go out with layers and a raincoat.

B.C. is still getting away with Halloween weather better than some other provinces though. Alberta had its first snowfall this week and will is supposed to get more cold weather for Halloween, which means seriously bundling up for anyone venturing out.
