(WKBW-TV) BUFFALO, NY — Make sure the umbrella is by the door and the kids have the rain jacket ready for the run to the bus. Showers arrive tonight with steady soaking rain at times on Thursday with temperatures holding in the 40s. Models suggest over an inch of rain is possible through Friday.

There's going to be a raw feeling to Friday with gusty winds, rain showers and cool temperatures. The big story for Halloween will be the winds. Winds will gust near 40 miles per hour at times especially for the Niagara Frontier. During trick-or-treating hours, it'll feel like it's in the 30s with some areas of showers lingering off of the lake.

Showers stick around in the form of streamers of lake rain Saturday and temperatures in the 40s. It'll begin to dry out further Sunday with highs closer to 50 but some lake showers can't be ruled out.
