A powerful wintery mix, including heavy snowfall, gusty winds, and freezing rain, is hitting over 30 states from the southwest to northeast. More than 35 million individuals are under a winter storm alert. Northeast state officials warned that travel is treacherous. Wind chill temperatures are expected to drop below zero degrees, especially in plain regions
The Time Square Ball Drop
The Time Square ball drop is the hallmark of New Year’s Eve. Coinciding with the countdown, the ball descends. Since 1907, the ball has undergone many makeovers, from crystal stone to rhinestone and strobe lighting. The one thing that never changes is the ball drop marks the end of the old year and welcomes the beginning of the new one.
