Storm Raises Chance of First Rainy Halloween in Los Angeles Since 2014

Forecasters track a storm system bringing a 90% chance of rain to Southern California on Halloween, as high tides worsen coastal flooding statewide.

What to know

  • NWS forecasters put a 90% chance of rain on LA's Halloween weekend, which would be the city's first rainy Halloween since 2014.
  • Exceptionally high tides, reaching 7.5–8 feet above baseline in LA, Orange and San Diego counties, are compounding coastal flooding risk alongside the storm.
  • By Oct. 29, some forecasts suggested the rain could move in Friday afternoon and clear before Halloween evening trick-or-treating in parts of Southern California.
  • Separate regional forecasts track Halloween rain risk in Texas, Houston, South Florida and Northern California as the storm system moves through.
