No. 1 – Weather wise, we aren't trying to "trick” you, but your forecast for Halloween is going to be quite a "treat" if you like warm temperatures and no wet weather by the evening. Keep your NBC 6 app handy for First Alert Doppler 6000 and push alerts on any severe weather.
No. 2 - A woman's body was found Wednesday inside of a Miami Beach apartment where an armed barricaded man surrendered to police.
Officers responded before 8 p.m. to a man armed with a knife in the 7400 block of Carlyle Avenue, Miami Beach police said. A woman called 911 after she tried to check on her friend at the location, police said. When she got to the apartment, she encountered a hostile man who shut the door and wouldn't let her inside.
No. 3 - A man was arrested in Deerfield Beach after authorities said he was trying to lure underage girls into his car with money. Roberto Noel, 37, was arrested Tuesday on a charge of interfering with the custody of a minor, Broward County jail records showed.
Investigators said Noel, who lives in Pompano Beach, was driving around offering girls $500 to get into his car. A probable cause affidavit suggested it wasn't the first time he'd tried to lure minors, but prosecutors said Noel doesn't have a criminal history.

No. 5 - Santa Ana winds were expected to linger for a final day Thursday after driving more than a dozen wildfires through California, sending thousands fleeing and burning nearly up to the walls of the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.
