Tampa Halloween Saturday Tops Out Near 86, Then Sunday Turns Cooler With Rain Chances Rising
Tampa's Halloween Saturday runs warm under scattered clouds, with only a small rain chance today — then Sunday cools into the upper 70s as rain chances climb, on the station's live feed.
Tampa's Halloween Saturday is a warm one. The station's live weather feed (Open-Meteo) read 75.9 degrees, feeling like 80.4, on Saturday morning, on the way to a high near 86 degrees with a low near 73. Scattered clouds ride over the bay, and today's rain chance sits at just 18 percent — good news for daytime festivals and for trick-or-treat plans this evening.
Sunday is the change day. The feed puts Sunday's high near 79 degrees with a low near 69, and rain chances rise to 47 percent — a cooler, wetter finish to the weekend than Saturday. The updated guidance has Sunday's rain chance lower than the 70 percent figure carried in this morning's earlier forecasts, but Sunday remains the weekend's wettest day by a wide margin.
The pattern carries into the workweek start: Monday's high is near 80 degrees with rain chances at 42 percent, before Tuesday through Thursday warm back into the mid-80s with smaller rain chances, between 11 and 23 percent on the feed.
For Halloween night itself, the practical read is simple: costumes will not need jackets tonight, with temperatures holding in the 70s after sunset, and the rain gear matters more for Sunday's plans — including the trip to Raymond James Stadium — than for Saturday's.
