Halloween is this weekend, and for trick and treaters out there this means donning acostume and loading up on sweet treats from the neighbours.
However, with the weather warnings for rain and flooding that have been set by the Met Office for this week, will it be dry to go out trick or treating on Halloween weekend in Cumbria?
