WASHINGTON (DC News Now) — Thursday marked the second warmest Halloween recorded in D.C. history, with temperatures hitting a high of 83 degrees.
“We’re kind of regretting buying full suit-up costumes here,” said Todd Bosch, who was dressed in Baby Shark costumes with his wife and son. “It doesn’t feel like Halloween. I kind of miss the cold weather that’s for us.”
Still, the warm weather didn’t stop kids and their parents from trick-or-treating throughout the District.
“We love Halloween,” said Rose Hanlon, who dressed as Annabeth from the Percy Jackon series. “I really, really want a lot of chocolate, I love chocolate.”
“It’s fun, it’s great, they’re so adorable,” said Linda Real, who was handing out candy in Glover Park.
Real said it’s a tradition to watch the kids parade down her street each Halloween. Still, she admitted she wished the temperature were more fall-like this year.
“I’d rather it be cooler. I kind of don’t have that fall feeling right now,” she said.
