Metro Detroit weather: A little wet for trick-or-treaters, then colder tonight

Evening temps in the low 50s and 40s

DETROIT – Happy Halloween and welcome to Sunday evening, Motown.

A line of scattered rain showers and sprinkles arrives ahead of a cold front this evening. They are scattered and fast-moving, so it will not be a wash out by any means for trick-or-treaters.
