Nasty Weather Expected For Our New Year’s Day – Mid Michigan

Although I doubt that there will be much partying going on tonight, those who do have to be traveling may find it quite difficult.  There is a wintry mix in the forecast with freezing rain for our New Year’s Day.  This is going to be a strange year with few of the regular New Year festivities. No tournament of roses parade, and no big crowds for the ball drop in New York.   The Rose Parade has always been the highlight of my New Years Day and I’m hoping that I may be able to find a repeat of a parade from a previous year on UTube.  As for the Bowl games, has anyone even been paying much attention to college football this year?  I’m usually a big fan but can’t even tell you who the top contenders are this season.  I think that most of us are very happy to see this year end, but it’s not looking very good for 2021 either, especially with this election fraud.  Time will tell how this plays out.
