Halloween 2023 in Orlando is poised to be unusually cool, offering a refreshing change for residents and visitors alike. A high-pressure system moving into the Southeast will create a calm and pleasant environment for trick-or-treaters. A steady breeze from the north is ushering in dry air, leading to moisture levels expected to reach near record lows.
Halloween Temperatures and Records
This year’s Halloween forecast indicates that afternoon temperatures will remain 8 to 10 degrees below average. Highs are projected to stay in the low 70s, far from the record high of 91 degrees set in 2019.
- Current temperature as of Friday noon: 69 degrees.
- Coolest Halloween high on record: 66 degrees (1993).
- Halloween highs: 70 degrees (1958 & 1965).
As darkness falls on Halloween night, temperatures are expected to drop rapidly into the mid-60s and even into the mid-50s. This suggests that those going out for candy may want to wear a light jacket over their costumes.
