♪ ♪ nothing i can see but you when you dance, dance, dance, girl ♪ [laughter] rachel: you guys, sometimes we just talk too much in the commercial break and we we forget that we're actually on tv. pete: uh-huh. i guess we are. [laughter] rachel: and here we are. dance dance, dance, guys. good miles an hour, everybody -- pete: good morning. rachel: welcome. joey, thanks for filling in for will with. joey: thanks for having me. pete: the second to last "fox & friends" of 2023 here on december 30th. rachel: yeah. we're so close to the the end o- pete: but we're actually at the end of nothing, okay? [laughter] it's the end of nothing. it's. the end of an arbitrary

calendar. it's actually we're heading into madness. wonderful -- i mean, political season. we're heading into -- rachel: i don't think it's wonderful madness, i'm just going to be really honest. i think the next year is going to be extremely -- pete: but if you love chaos like mentioner it's going to be great. joey: if you think 2024's going to be a terrible year, goo buy but your hunting -- go buy your hunting license, that's the thing to do -- pete: and i know that's what you'll be doing because you've invited many me multiple times and, no offense, i want to go, but i haven't been able the find the time. joey: i'm an outdoorsman looking for disciples. it's part of our raw dna, it's what we should be doing rather than wearing things like this for thousands of years. pete: i will say i did buy a foot-powered clay shooter -- joey: there we go. pete: and a shotgun for my boys, so we went out -- joey: you go back and do it

again -- pete: i have one that was able to do it, my oldest. and then boone, he thinks it has too much kick, and he melted -- joey: we'll get him a 410. pete: is that different than a .232 -- can excuse me, a 12-gauge? joey: it's much shorter. pete: i said i need a shotgun for my kids -- joey: that's awesome, because that means they'll never be afraid of the kick of the gun. we'll get 'em a .410. fully legal, by the way, you're just a couple hours away, and we'll show 'em how to shoot -- rachel: sounds like a nice two-family hunting -- pete: i like that. rachel: all planned. joey: my son joseph started with a.4 so -- 410, i started with a 12 -- rachel: you have an exceptionally bright son. pete: that's true. rachel: not that yours is not bright -- [laughter] pete: no, i concur.

[laughter] joey: -- not your son's fault. pete: it's my fault. that's a parenting problem. all right. so let's move, let's continue to rehash a little bit -- rachel: somebody who has a real parenting problem is joe biden. and east the one -- [laughter] pete: that is it is true. joey: also agrees with buying a shotgun. pete: yes. [laughter] rachel: all right. pete: so speaking of joe biden, he's the one denied that there was this chinese spy balloon, you remember that. first went over alaska a, and then it was discovered over montana by someone looking at the sky. they said, okay, it is a spy craft, but it's not transmitt information -- transmitting information, and we're covering our military bases with tarps so they can't look at 'em. and then -- but we can't shoot it down because it could fall on a civilian area in montana. so we have to wait until it goes all the way off south carolina on the coast, and we'll hoot it down. now we're learning that china

used a u.s. internet provider to communicate with the spy craft while it was -- we don't know who that internet provider was, what the wi-fi unit was, but our government had to know this while it was happening. rachel: yeah. as you said is, lots of lies from the beginning. they knew that the spy balloon was coming over the united states because it had happened before, they just had not told us before. and then as you said, they wouldn't with shoot it down because they wanted to make sure it collected all of its data as it travels across the country -- traveled across the country before we shot it down. pete: apparently. rachel: so much incompetence. pete: you know, maybe they were competent, maybe they 23450u exactly what a it was. keep the american people in the darks don't confront the chines- rachel: and it did bring up a lot of questions about is joe biden compromised because so many of the things he does doesn't make sense for american national security but tends to benefit the chinese whether it's covering up what they're doing

over our country with the spy balloon, covering up the origins of covid 19 from the wuhan lab. they only seem to weigh in on the side of the benefit of the chinese. joey: yeah, far more specifically, i think it's very puzzling. i think a lot of military specialists in the field offal probably had some -- of signal probably had some good ideas, but as a commander in chief even without that technological inpsych, you've got -- insight, you've got to make decisions that project strength and posture as well as strike tactical decisions. it landed on owe biden's desk, he -- joe biden's desk, he chose to plett it fly across the country. it was using american internet to collect information, and it really a mix us look bad. pete: it does. you talk about strength, joey. if it's not joe biden and it's not lloyd austin over at the pentagon, then maybe it's antony blinkening who is projecting strength across the globe.

or maybe not. or at least he thinks so. here's a post on x, formerly known as twitter, by our secretary of state with a year in review. and he tweeted this: as a i reflect on the miles traveled, countries visited and intense diplomacy over the past year, i'm us proud of our work to build stronger partnerships and strengthen global peace and security. rachel, his claim is that the portraits of diplomacy of 2023 is the strength thenning of peace and security. rachel: you know, i remember because i'm old enough to remember the reagan years where we talked about a peace through strength. the biden administration with blinken at the helm at the state department, their motto is peace through war, because that's what we've gotten since joe biden is in office. so under donald trump we had peace. he never started a war. in fact, he was beginning to wind down wars that we had in the middle east, and end then in comes joe biden with this

incompetent that you're looked at right here who, you know, did everything -- did nothing to prevent the war from happening in ukraine, between ukraine and russia. in fact, they really actually made it happen by giving ukraine the idea that they could enter into nato and signing agreements to that effect which, of course, made russia very nervous because that's an exist telephone, threat to them -- existential threat to them, and they then said we're going to invade ukraine. and i think joe biden said only a small incursion, do you remember that? pete: minor incursion. rachel: minor incurls. so that happened. now we've dumped $100 billion into ukraine, we have no idea where that money's going. then they also empowered and seven abled iran which then gave money to the terrorists in the middle east who ended up doing a terrorist attack in israel, so now we have war again in the middle east, in gaza.

so this is -- and, by the way, they've also a, you know, actually interfered with other countries who have tried to have peace agreements between ukraine and russia. so they are the opposite of bringing piece a peace -- peace, and it's kind of comical but also insulting that he would actually put this retrospective with all his pictures up trying to make us think he diss bring peace. -- did bring peace. joey: that's the point, it's literally photo after photo of him specifically, not the work he's done, the people he's met, the things he accomplished. litter -- literally just pictures of him. this is planned. he goes back a year ago and says, listen, you know what would be really great? let's get a photographer to follow he around -- me around and take pictures of me. that's the type of ego, the type of rules for thee but not for me, the idea the that they believe they're some class above the res that makes sense that they can get away with things. and that just really shows their

perspective on governing the american people. in my opinion, it's even deeper than just being that fares zestic. rachel: pete, do you remember -- isn't apt any blinken the person who collected all the signature ises for 50 intelligence officers -- yeah, i believe he collected all the 50 intelligence officers who then said -- pete: if i think you're right, i think he was central to that idea that it was -- rachel: the laptop -- pete: -- russian disinformation. he's a very dutiful partisan. that's how he became secretary of state the. and sins then he's dutifully followed through on the obama's priorities. of the iran deal and favoring the iranians. i mean, the guy's got a world view, is and it doesn't include america being strong and secure. it's also a -- he's also a globalist. all that language is like, oh, we're or reestablishing these alliances, it's all a foil against them believing that trump was going to prodestroy nato. it's all this code talk in washington. meanwhile, everything gets worse. people look around --

rachel: nobody's buying it. pete: -- everything's getting worse, but in d.c. they get to pat each other on the back at the cocktail parties. it cuts across both sides of the aisle, exactly right. all right, let's move to ohio. i don't know if the spy balloon went over ohio. it might have, possibly did. we'll look into that. but there's a bill that was passed in the ohio legislature that would ban surgery, trans if surgery for minors, as joey points out child mutilation, and trans men competing in women's sports in ohio. and it passed the legislature, and republican governor mike dewine vetoed the bill. and then he took to the podium, kind of looked up -- he said he looked a lot of people in the eye, but he didn't look the camera in the eye, and gave this explanation. >> -- have looked me in the eye and have told me that but for this treatment, their child would be dead.

i cannot sign this bill as it's currently written. this bill would impact a very small number of ohio's children. but for those children who face gender dysphoria and for their families, the consequences of this bill could not be more profound. i truly believe that welcome back we can collaborate, find common ground and adopt rules to protect ohio children. rachel: he's not looking to protect children at all. in fact, by him doing this what he's trying to do is make sure that more children get mutilated and castrated and become infertile into the future. i think it's really important to consider what were, what were the forces that were influencing his decision. we know that there is, of course, the cleveland clinic and other hospitals, the very powerful lobby ohio. in fact, the cleveland clinic is

the eighth largest hospital in america. we know that these children that the end up on transitioning become patients for life. and that surely, i have to believe, weighed in on this. we we spoke to riley gaines earlier, and here's what she had to say about governor dewine's veto. >> i believe not only is he a spineless coward, i believe he's morally bankrupt. there's no argument, any sort of moral person could make that would veto this bill. not only, of course, as i mentioned is this lack of morals and showing a lack of doing what's right and what's fair and what's just, this doesn't accurately represent ohioans or, nevertheless, it it doesn't represent the nation of america. if you look at just the people who have come out in opposition i'll really detesting what governor dewine did yesterday, i mean of you have the attorney general of ohio, the lieutenant governor, the senate president, you have the speaker of the house. the votes are certainly there to

overturn this, and i am comfortable -- comfort it will be overridden in ohio picking ohio the 24th strait9 to hopefully pass some information -- joey: she used very passionate words there, but it's not because she's trying to be divisive, it's because it's a passionate issue for her. this entire issue defined what was ap an other record-setting -- otherwise record-setting career for her in collegiate sports, and it's something she had the courage to ten outside of the fray -- step outside of the fray, change her plans for the rest of her life. she's fighting now so others don't have to go through that. she speaks with some credibility. rachel: yeah, no question about it. president p yep. let's hope the legislature overrides that veto. she mentioned it brings it to about a half of the states in the union who have pass bills like this, and that's what you're going to have in the future, a breakdown of common sense legislation in states where they can define what a man and woman actually is, you don't do these things to minors, and

they've got crazy land on the other side. rachel: as more information comes out, you're seeing a lot of children now who were transitioned who are now in their 20s wanting to detransition. there's lawsuits right now going through suing doctors and hospitals for not having, you know, informed these children of the lifelong consequences. so that could change people's mind. i know in europe they're reversing a lot of -- pete: i e mean, the left doesn't really deal in facts or information. rah. rachel: not. but sometimes money, you sue a hospital enough, maybe they start to do the right thing. but make no mistake, big pharma, big hospitals are profiting off of the castration, genital mutilation and really psychological damage to children. pete: yep. and with mike dewine, with republicans like that, who needs democrats? [laughter] turn now to a few additional headlines beginning with this one, police in arlington, texas, the are searching for a suspect who they say robbed and killed a

woman after a following her. officers say the suspect trailed the unnamed victim from a nearby bank, robbed her and then ran her over with his car? the woman was pronounced dead at the scene. no arrests have been made. sad. and new overnight, fire fighters putting out a massive fire outside of philadelphia. it's unclear how the fire started, but local reports say it started at a transmission shop. according to officials, there were several minor if explosions after the area went up in flames. they say no one was hurt, and firefighters are still investigating. after a 500-pound black bear was discovered in a crawl space under a lake tahoe home, a local bear expert was able to get him out using a paintball gun to scare the bear. he joined us earlier about why a human being would do such a thing, and this is what he said. >> we know each other pretty well. i've been at her house numerous times. i've gotten him out of some other places, you know, getting

him out of some sticky spots and try to keep everybody safe, him safe. pete: he says he has thousands of hours of experience we victimming bears. never had a one go sideways and warns don't try this at home. rachel: wow. pete: and finally, three hours ago rachel talked about a breakfast -- rachel: i did! i ordered it. pete: an hour ago she ordered it, and it was supposed to be here 15 minutes ago and, oh! [laughter] there it is, right there. and those are your headlines. breakfast is here. rachel: ray all right. we're going to talk about it's 2024 almost, we're obviously two days away, and let's talk a little bit about people's resolutions. so, by the way, top new year's resolution for 2024 -- pete: okay, what are they? a. rachel: this week 59% of people say they're going to save more money. this one happens every year, 50% say they're going to exercise emergency 47%, eat healthier. 40%, spend more time with family

e and friends. 35%, lose weight. 26%, reduce spending on living expenses. 19%, spending less time on social media. that's a hard one. 19%, reduce dress on the job with. joey: when you look at these, i think what you take from it, these are issues that people are struggling with. they're struggling to have extra money, to feel healthy because of the lifestyle we live these days, and to eat healthier, it costs a lot more pun to eat health -- money to eat healthier. spend time with family and friends, you can't do that if you're working two or three jobs. lose weight, we don't promote healthiness or physical activity. we have extremely overweight people saying i'm beautiful too, and it's knot about -- not about a being beautiful, it's about being healthy. rachel: what's your resolution? yeah e suis i'm going to save it for later on this week, but a real big resolution for me is quite simply just to spend more time with my family. and that's why i look at that

scale and i go, man, they're on to something. these resolutions show something about what american life is right now. rachel: that's so funny because my -- i have two. one is -- pete: we're supposed to be saving them for tomorrow. [laughter] joey: i was trying to ease that -- pete: so that's a tease. rachel: save it for tomorrow memo? if i didn't get it. pete: you've got to check your mail. [laughter] e-mail us your new year's resolutions, friends@foxnews.com. friends@the fox news -- what are your resolutions, we're going to read them on the air tomorrow, and we have 24 hours to think about them -- rachel: i was ready to share it, but i'll wait until tomorrow. joey: you've waited all a year -- rachel: i have. pete: 6 a.m. tomorrow, you can share those resolutions, and we'll read yours tomorrow the. e-mail us. we love hearing from you with, you're a part of the show, we love having you. keep it interesting, you know? and something you think you can follow through on. don't make some resolution that,

like, you're never going to do. jee e suis speaking of being able -- rachel: never going to be on twitter again with. pete: that's the one i'm going for. rachel: you've done it before. pete: well, i got kicked off. [laughter] i like that 19% less on social media, if i could get rid of it all, i would. joey: speak of following through with stuff, i think discipline and resolution, jocko willink is going to share his inspirational new year's 'message -- rachel: i am a looking forward to that. an iranian national with terror tice caught crossing the northern border. and the new i.c.e. report revealing the shockingly low number of illegals that biden has deported in the past firstcall year. we're going to talk about that next. today with us. to duckduckgo on all your devie

tom feely is the former director of new york's i.c.e. remuscle, and he joins us now. -- removal. tom, thank you for joining us today. this arrest highlights what we all know, that there are bad guys, terrorists, trying to get into our country. we also know this is a highly volatile period of time in the world with wars and people angry at us all over the place. so how worried are you that there could be terror cells forming right now and bad people coming in and potentially pulling off something very deadly? >> with good morning. thanks for having me. you know, the southern border is more of the sexy border, if you will. it gets all the a attention, all the resources. and from a strategy call point of view, if you rook at a canada, canada has some very liberal refugee and asylum policies that allow people to more easily gain access to canada. than the united states, so to speak. so a lot of people who want to

come here and do harm to us actually come to canada and then sneak awe cross the northern border that just doesn't is have that many resources, and i can't get into too much deteenager obviously, but i can -- decan teenager obviously, but i can tell you the new york ports of industry see more me if fair yous people probably, i think a lot more than people would probably suspect without, you know, giving up too many secrets. rachel: yeah. that's so scary. and we know that there are record numbers of known terrorists that we've caught. we don't know how many are here that we haven't caught. we know there are hundreds of thousands of gotaways. those are people that are trying to evade us and not turn themselves in to the border patrol. you also expressed concern that this individual, this specific individual that this man with links to terrorism that was caught, that he was not held longer for questioning. >> well, again, i don't want really mow the specifics of it -- i don't really know the specification of it, and we don't really want to get into

what the processes are for i.c.e. dealing with these individuals that come from foreign countries that have terrorist ic ties. the period does seem a little short. hopefully, the intel agencies did get an opportunity to interview him and as or town some more information -- ascertain. and like i've said before on fox news, i know there's terrorist organizations and cell here. unfortunately, i've had the opportunity to interview some of them including hamas, and it's just really concerning that with a wide open border and i don't think any argument can be made that there isn't one, we have no idea who's coming in. you know, people keep mentioning gotaways. you know, how do you know you had 10,000 gotaways in because you didn't catch them. is it a mash marble bowl, you're trying to guess how many are in there for a prize? if they're here. and a scenario as simple as, you know, say you take 20 american cities, 5 terrorists in each city which is a very, very low number, and just say they decided to do what they did in israel, just drive around

neighborhoods and start the shooting and killing innocent people. that would literally, literally the wheels of american society would come off, and it would be absolutely devastate thatting to us. and it's a real possibility. rachel: yeah x. if delay don't -- and they don't seem to care. whatever their policy is, whatever this borderless world they want to create, we're collapsing our system through this illegal immigration, whatever it is matters to them more even than the politics of a possible terror attack. they are hell bent on doing this. last word on what you think should happen or what can happen. finish. >> i really don't understand what the end game is with this administration. i mean, you can say it's kind of tongue in cheek we're importing, you know, democrat voters, but -- most places everyone knows it's a constitutional issue. illegal aliens can't vote or shouldn't be voting. i really just don't know what the end game is. i mean, are you really trying to

destroy the united states of america? rachel: yeah. >> because you couldn't have a bigger example of a trojan horse than what we have going on right now. rachel: i think you nailed it, there's no other explanation. it does just not make sense. and i agree, this is bigger than some voting scheme to get more democrat scheme. it's much bigger e. i think it's global, and i think we've already seen that whether it's the u.n., you know, these other countries that are participating, the wef, the p.r -- w.h.o., this is a globalist plot to do this. and the ngos. we can't forget about that. >> right. rachel: tom feeley, thank you for joining us. frightening but important to be aware of what's happening. >> thanks for having me. have a great new yearing. rachel: absolutely, you too. up next, a harvard history professor now comparing the college to a medieval dictatorship for refusing to take the president's plagiarism probe seriously.

pete: if harvard's president, claudine gay, coming under fire from one of her own as she remains in her post despite multiple allegations of plagiarism. in a "wall street journal" op-ed, a history professor there at harvard likennens harvard to a medieval dictatorship for ignoring academic honing city, saying politicization and lower standards are jeopardizing the school's standing as a great research institution. here to react, manhattan institute director of constitutional studies, ilya shapiro. ilya, thanks for being here. it is amazing considering what she faced for her reaction to what happened in israel that now these plagiarism allegations are out there, and you've got professors saying this is not what ab institution like this is supposed to look like. >> yeah. her disastrous performance at the congressional hearing was really the tip of the iceberg.

and the water has sort of drained out and revealed, to mix metaphors, the run in that iceberg, in harvard, in elite higher ed and higher education more generally because it's really what we're seeing is the illiberal takeover of our institutions of higher learning such that traditional core missions of research and open inquiry are sub9 accelerate ised in the interest of -- subverted in the interest of identity politics and postmodern theories of of oppressor/oppressed classes and all the rest. claudine gay's plagiarism is terrible, and she was already a midling academic who was clearly elevated purely because she wanted to impose and did as a dean all these dei programs. but by no means is she the only thing wrong with hard -- harvard or i elite higher ed institutions. pete: sure. she's just become a symbol of

it. part of the op-ed e from that history professor at harvard said e academic honesty seems to matter less than having the right progressive values. and that's why the word medieval is tied to it, because universities used to demand conformity. it and seems we've gone back to that. >> well, it's even, you know, some people might say this is just the latest in decades of conservative complaints about liberals taking over the faculty lounge going back to the berkeley hippies in the '60s. but really this is something different. this is the beaurocratization of higher ed, especially those dei offices which ironically subvert intellectual diversity, oppose equal opportunity and exclude, as you and this op-ed said, those who diverge from ultra-radical progressive orthodoxy. another harvard professor, stephen pinker, wrote an op-ed earlier this month in the boston globe talking about how to reform higher ed maybe, if it's even possible, you have to do

certain things like promote freedom of speech and open inquiry, shut down these dei offices which are the tail that wag the dog, don't discriminate based on ideology and differentiate between the freedom of speech and disrupting classes or harassing people or engaging in violent protests and things like this. pete: uh-huh. the problem is shutting down the dei offices in a place like harvard means shutting down the entire college because that runs the entire system right now. [laughter] just does. >> well, you know, pete -- [laughter] you know, pete, you and i went to princeton more than 20 years ago, and, you know, princeton is facing similar sorts of issues, but there's been a growth in the bureaucracy in those 20 years, and it's not, again, it's not just claudine gay or other faculty that are spewing things. -- sawing things. all of this money is being spent on these offices that are not teaching to the point where at many of these schools there's long been more bureaucrats, upon the-teaching staff than faculty.

and in some places, more non-teaching staff than students. a hundred years ago students would come with their own personal butlers. i don't know whether these edu-accurates are going to be perm butlers for these students, but there's a lot of hinges that need to change so universities can return to their mission of seeking truth, doing research. it really got away from all of that, and as you said and this op-ed said, they've become schools of activism rather than of education. pete: yeah. no doubt. ilya shapiro, thank you very much. have a great new year. >> see you next year, pete. pete: you got it. all right, up next, jocko willink shares his inspirational new year's we've eve message d. new year's eve message. plus, the mclemores are helping us celebrate national bacon day in sizzling style. stay with us. ♪ ♪

a message to share. but first i want to get to this. we're talking about 108 attacks on americans, not countries americans support, not american allies, 108 attacks on americans, yet we're not at war. that doesn't really seem to add up. i interviewed is lindsey graham about this, and he kind of seemed to think that our -- he said the line if we don't fight them in their yard, they're going to be fighting in ours. we also had people said, hey, we should just get everyone out of that region. what's the answer to keep our country and americans safe? >> to your point, joey, we don't have a clear foreign policy. we don't know what it is which means the world doesn't know what it is, which means the enemy doesn't know what it is. we have to make rules, we have to have a cheer policy. right now we don't have that, and when america appears weak and indecisive, america's going to be tested. expect that that's what we're in right now. joey: yeah. i don't know that either of us are capable or maybe have the responsibility of coming up with a defense strategy, but looking

intropeckively at this country, we should believe in our government to have one, and we should believe that when we send men and women to a war area, that they're doing it for a purpose, and that's tough right now. talking about a purpose, would have the -- one of the things that brings me purpose are people like you that exercise leadership, responsibility. a key word there that i struggle with myself, discipline. tell me your message and how discipline works into that. >> yeah. you know, when there's chaos in the world, the minimum you can do is get control of your world. and, look, you had a good year last year. doesn't matter, a bad near, doesn't matter. what report ins -- matters is 2024. and i don't wish people a happy new year with, i wish them a disciplined new year. because if you want happiness, you've got to have discipline. a couple of my companies, we're doing something we call the death reset. the discipline equals freedom reset. 311 is 1 days of -- 311 days of discipline to reset your mind -- 31 -- we're really running a

great program. we've got a bunch of people joining us. if you want to join us, go to def reset.com and join us as we go into with 2024 with dedication and discipline to get stronger, smarter, healthier and better. that's what we're doing over here. joey: i love i. discipline is a key factor when it comes to differentiating yourself from orrs, also just for holding yourself accountable. discipline, man, i love it. i can't wait to check that out. hey, listen, thank you for your service. you don't need a new year's resolution because you're the kind of guy that if something needs change, you change it that day, so we're still talking about discipline. thank you for joining us, brother. >> that's it, bro, great to see you. happy new year. joey: take care. rachel, i'm going to toss it over to you. i don't want anything else to say about this, jocko covered it all. rachel: he's a disciplined guy, no question about it. thank you, joey. turning now to your headlines, colorado police are searching

for the mom accused of killing her two children and hurting a third. authorities found the children dead in her apartment after responding to an attempted burglary call earlier this month. she's accused of lightening about that burglary. authorities say she was last seep last week. florida deputies have released footage of the moment they rescued two hikers from the cypress if wilderness preserve near tampa last weekend. >> how you doing? >> good, good. >> you guys are good, right? you don't need an ambulance? >> no, we're good. >> you don't need no ant bites or nothing like that? rachel: the pair were lost for hours. i think called law enforcement once it became dark, and that's when officers sprang into action, calling in a helicopter with night vision to spot them. the hikers, thankfully, are okay. and those are your headlines. let's turn now to chief meteorologist and my friend rick

reichmuth for our fox weather forecast. what do you have for us? rick: man, that doesn't sound fun, being stuck in that swamp. no thank you. let's talk about the weather out there, cool across parts of florida, so if you were stuck in florida, you'd not only have the swamp, you'd have the cold. that system that brought blizzard conditions this week across parts of the plains, most of it is gone. we still have a little bit of snow falling across parts of the northeast. it's going to be a reinforcing clipper system that comes in throughout the day today bringing more snow across wisconsin, michigan and a reinforcing batch across parts of the central appalachia chans. fete ready there. it's part of cold air but not crazy, unseasonable cold. we don't is have any arctic air maas coming, but the cold air has settled down across parts of the south, and tonight, tomorrow morning's lows, 38 down towards apalachicola, 30 in atlanta. go towards monday morning, basically the same idea.

we do start to warm up a couple of degrees, but it's going to be slow. new year's eve, so tomorrow night's forecast, i tell you what, almost everybody looking pretty good. cool in minneapolis. the big cities all across the northeast looking good. that precipitation you see there on the map in the northeast, that's interior northeast, so celebrations going on in new york city looking just fine. rachel, i know you'll be out in times square tomorrow night. rachel: no. i'm going to be home having a steak with my husband.
