The Update- January 1st
Manage episode 463381352 series 3115680
The forecast for Dry January is looking very wet. The trend among the sober-curious in the Big Apple has seemingly dried up — with New Yorkers calling the once-hip phenomenon “stupid.”
In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Wednesday, the suspect who drove a vehicle at high speed into a crowd of revelers in New Orleans on New Year’s Day was killed after a firefight with police, law enforcement officials told the AP. Ten people were killed and 30 were injured after the suspect rammed a vehicle at high speed into a crowd of pedestrians in New Orleans’ bustling French Quarter district at 3:15 a.m. along Bourbon Street.
Locally, you can’t rain on their ball drop. Thunderstorms didn’t dampen the spirits in Times Square on New Year’s Eve as thousands of revelers rang in 2025 with a bang.
And U.S. stock markets will remain closed on Jan. 9 in honor of former President Jimmy Carter, continuing a long-held Wall Street tradition in mourning the nation’s leaders.
