Change in weather forecast means clear skies for rare Halloween blue moon

Saturday's night sky is expected to be clear in Kamloops and the Okanagan, ideal for viewing this year's rare Halloween blue moon.

A change in the weather means it won't be as scary for those venturing out on Halloween tomorrow in the Okanagan and Kamloops.

Environment Canada is calling for sunshine during the day and clear skies at night.

The predicted lack of cloud cover means a bright evening for trick or treaters, and those looking for a good view of October’s second full moon of the month which is called a blue moon.

The forecast for Halloween tomorrow, Oct. 31, calls for sunshine in Kamloops and the Okanagan with daytime high temperatures ranging from 7 Celsius in Kamloops to 11 C in Penticton.

The clear skies are expected to continue overnight with a low of 0 C.

A Halloween blue moon is a rare event.

The last time one appeared was in 1944, and the next one we’ll see one will be in 2039.
