Ashburn 2019 Trick-Or-Treating Hours, Weather Forecast

ASHBURN, VA — Halloween is on its way, and with just hours to go until trick-or-treaters hit the Ashburn streets, kids are readying their costumes and practicing their best jokes. The county doesn't have set hours, according to officials, but most kids will typically hit the streets after dusk.

The weather on Halloween could get a bit tricky. While temperatures are expected to peak around 72 degrees during the day and fall steadily to around 47 degrees overnight, there is a 70 percent chance of showers during the day and a 90 percent chance Thursday evening, according to the National Weather Service.

If you're trick-or-treating Thursday, remember to take an umbrella just in case. For a safe trick-or-treating night, parents should also remember to:

• Check all treats to ensure they are sealed and do not have any foreign objects.
• Carry a flashlight and wear reflective clothing.
• Plan costumes that are bright and reflective. Make sure that shoes fit well and that costumes are short enough to prevent tripping, entanglement or contact with flame.Light up the house at night. If a sword, cane, or stick is a part of your child's costume, make sure it is not sharp or long.
• If you have a security camera, make sure it's pointed at the front door.
• Always check through your peephole before opening the door.
• Bring a cell phone in case of an emergency.
• Young children, excited about the night of trick-or-treating, should be supervised by a responsible adult.
• Do not walk on the street — stay on sidewalks and cross streets when safe at intersections and crosswalks.
