so it is very cold out there. and then you have this area of low pressure with some moisture moving through. and that's helping to produce that winter weather across the rockies and also across portions of the plains. current windchills, what it feels like when you head out the door feels like five below zero in the city of denver. single digits in kansas city. and in minneapolis, you're looking at windchill temperatures that are below zero. but that cold air has now also moved farther off towards the east. we're in the teens in new york city and 20s for your current windchill temperatures across parts of the southeast. here's a look at those current winter storm warnings in effect. widespread across parts of the rockies and also into texas. texas, we're going to be looking at a bit of a wintry mix. watch out for slick driving conditions out there if you're hitting the roads on this new year's day. happy new year to you both, ladies. >> yes, to you too, maria. happy new year, 2015. some other news we are following, they wanted his trial moved out of boston and postponed it until september but the judge telling lawyers for the accused boston marathon bomber no way. as planned, jury selection is

♪ ♪ a dear acquaintance ♪ ♪ a happy new year ♪ and happy new year to you. it is 2015! thank you for joining "fox & friends first." string bands have been practicing for months on this big day. and just a few hours, the annual mummers parade kicks off in philadelphia.

so we're going to go live to wtxf reporter jennifer joyce. she is along the parade route for us with the latest. good morning, jennifer. >> reporter: good morning, heather. that's right, we're live in south philadelphia along second street which is also known as 2 street here in philly. this is where all of the mummers' clubhouses are. right behind me is the clubhouse. as you can see that banner reads "100 years." it's the 100th anniversary of that club in particular. but this age-old tradition is changing. the parade route in particular will be different this year. this year the mummer parade will start at city hall and head down to washington. that's the reverse of what it typically is. right now the mummers will be judged at 15th & jfk, that's right outside of city hall. they'll head south on broad street finishing up in south philadelphia. also this year, the parade route will be one-third of the length of what it typically is. and that's because of declining membership. and soaring costs that's

seriously hurting the mummers. the mummers parade here has been an official tradition since 1901. so these changes are not going over too well with a lot of people here in south philadelphia. again, that clubhouse in particular right across the way, 100 years. so they are used to what they are used to, that tradition. across the way you can see the barricades set up. it's still early. so we are expecting the mummers to be out here in maybe about 45 minutes to start getting their makeup on and costumes on as well. cheryl? >> jennifer joyce. thank you, jennifer. well, did you have a rough night? >> what the [ bleep ] happened last night? >> hey phil, am i missing a tooth? >> then you need to know these hangover dos and don'ts. here's what you should not do. hair of the dog, drinking more just postpones your hangover. coffee leads to more dehydration. and don't pop pain relievers if you haven't gone to bed.

sleep, then take them when you wake up. now here's what works. hydrate. drink lots of water or sprite. scientists say it's a good hangover cure. eat sugary foods may help you feel less trembly. broth is also a good source of vitamins. sleep is probably the best way to recover. and lay off the booze for 48 hours before you drink again. heather. >> just don't drink too much to begin with may be a good idea. dangerous. we're both animal lovers. the top five animal viral videos of 2014. >> number five, a monkey in bali stealing a tourist's gopro camera and taking a selfie. >> number four, a thailand man stopping a charging elephant by outstretching his arms and telling him to stop. >> in third an oregon family dialed 911 after their 22-pound cat attacks their baby and traps them in the bedroom. >> we aren't safe around the cat. it's a very large himalayan, and we're trapped in the bedroom. he's charging us.

he's at our door our bedroom door. >> one moment, okay? >> do you hear him? that was the cat. >> yeah i hear him. hold on. keep your door shut, okay? >> okay, so police arrived and trapped the himalayan cat named luxe who was eventually taken to an animal shelter. >> i remember that one. at number two, a black bear caught on camera walking up -- well, no there's the cat again. well, there is a bear. i promise you. and it was caught walking upright like a human in new jersey. >> we're both obsessed. we've both seen that video. the number one viral video, the tara the hero cat saves a 4-year-old from a dog attack by chasing the vicious pooch award. see, cats are good, right, heather? >> you're a cat lover. >> she likes cats. i like dogs. coming up fire and ice, huge flames rip through historic buildings in subzero temperatures. what's left of the once-picturesque town. and a look back at the caught-on-camera stories of 2014. but first, a look at some of

your new year's resolutions. gerry writes, i lost 100 pounds this year. i expect to lose 70 more in 2015. good for you. >> go gerry. anthony writes, my new year's resolution is to pay off my mortgage! >> phyllis writes i will read all of the bible this year. that's a great resolution.

the ultimate battle of the elements in wyoming. fire destroying a dozen businesses some the small town of du bois. while icicles hang from nearby buildings, firefighters braving subzero temperatures to battle the flames. but at 25 degrees below their houses and equipment started -- their hoses and equipment, excuse me, started to freeze up.

it took nearly nine hours to get the fire put out. the video unbelievable, people running for their lives after a freak windstorm sends canopies and poles flying. the tornadolike whirlwind making its way through the lot, injuring four people. it happened outside the rose bowl in pasadena, california. heather. >> thank you, cheryl. well surveillance cameras, drones and smartphones capturing some incredible moments in 2014. from close calls to volcanos here are the best moments caught on camera in the past year. >> reporter: fans narrowly escape death when a race car comes barrelling right into them. the rally car in italy flipped during a race flying right into a crowd of spectators. drone camera action. a company strapping a camera to

its drone and flying right into the flames of an erupting volcano in iceland. the lava exploding hundreds of feet into the air. it was so hot, it melted the camera but not the memory card. an ohio man enlists the help of a toddler to break into his laundromat. you can see him hoisting the child to disconnect surveillance cameras. public transportation was the site of scary moments last year. good samaritans in philadelphia coming to the rescue of this woman who narrowly escaped death when she fell onto the tracks. a similar story in l.a. where a blind man fell onto the tracks and was trapped for some 20 minutes before being rescued. and talk about a group effort. dozens of people coming to the aid of a man who apparently did not mind the gap. his leg got caught between the platform and the subway car, setting the wheels in motion for a flash mob rescue. panic inside a plane. video showing the moment a virgin plane is forced to make

open an atm, but the explosion knocks him off his feet. >> oops. nice recap heather. >> yeah. 2014. >> yeah, you had good stuff in there. time is now 25 minutes after the hour. it is so stealth, it can't even fire. why the pentagon's $400 billion jet will be useless for the next four years. and something to like. how facebook users can help billionaire ceo mark zuckerberg.

>> boston pulled out all the stops for the city's first night there. now in its 39th year tens of thousands of people crowded the downtown area to get a glimpse of some ice sculptures soak in some good tunes of course and marvel there at the fireworks. a beautiful fireworks display coming off the space needle in seattle. check that out. 20,000 thought to have gathered there in downtown to watch that spectacular. and a rainbow of lights lit up the sky in hong kong. a huge fireworks display over victoria harbor. 300,000 people coming out to celebrate. and not to be outdone london hosted its own magnificent fireworks show at the same time. and now that we're several hours into 2015 it's time to get cracking on those new year's resolutions. how are they coming? >> well, i'm going to wear silly glasses on live television. this is my new resolution. >> absolutely. you've got to start somewhere.

protesters in new york using the new year's celebration to have their voices heard. nearly 100 people marching from union square to midtown expecting to continue their demonstration in times square along with new year's revelers. but police not allowing them to enter. it was already packed with people. embattled new york mayor bill de blasio trying to make good with the nypd. with the mayor announcing a proposal to name two streets in brooklyn after officers wenjian liu and rafael ramos who were shot to death in their police cruiser on december 20th. it may not be enough though. another banner look at that, bashing de blasio, flown above the hudson river urging him to apologize to the nypd. extreme weather now, talk about a new year's surprise. it's a rare sight, real snow in southern california? more than 180 drivers had to be rescued after getting trapped on a highway.

just look at these frozen palm trees near san diego. >> that's amazing. and the rare snow also causing problems on the road in cottonwood, arizona. your neck of the woods. >> you never see this. >> but is this arctic blast over? maria molina tracking it all in the weather center. maria? >> good morning. hello, everyone at home. that storm system on the move now. we're seeing some areas of snow across parts of the rockies and then across portions of texas and also into oklahoma. we have some moisture ahead of it, and it's actually freezing on contact with the surfaces. so we're looking at some freezing rain coming down out here and some concerns for icing. so we do have a number of winter storm warnings in effect across parts of texas. winter weather advisories through oklahoma. and then across portions of the rockies. those warnings are still in effect as well because of some heavy snowfall for the higher elevations. outside of where that storm system is, though conditions look much better. travel looks good across the east coast from boston to miami. and across the midwest, quiet right now. but over the next several days, expect a round of winter weather

from that same storm system. that's it. over to you. weather caused major problems and delays in the search for crashed airasia flight 8501. recovery crews from around the world including the u.s. scouring the java sea looking for debris and human remains in the doomed flight. rough seas making it nearly impossible for drivers to explore possible wreckage. so far only 8 of 162 bodies have been recovered. at the stroke of midnight, many american businesses given something to worry about. the terrorism risk insurance act has expired. congress unable to renew the program by the end of 2014. it is meant to protect businesses in the event of terror attacks. a concern for the super bowl, actually. we spent $400 billion on the stealth planes but as of right now, they can't even fire a gun. these new f-35 joint strike fighters already in test flights, and they'll join the marine corps fleet next year. but the software for their gun cannons won't be ready for four

years. the planes aren't totally useless, though. they can still shoot off bombs and missiles. what is in store for washington in the new year? doug luzader taking out his crystal balls and making his predictions as both sides of the aisle promise some bipartisanship agreements. >> reporter: the first big date to watch is january 6th, when republicans take over the senate, giving them complete control of congress. it's something the president is already bracing for. >> the question's going to be are we able to separate out those areas where we disagree and those areas where we agree? i think there are going to be some tough fights on areas where we disagree. >> reporter: later in the month on january 20th, the president will deliver the state of the union address. but some republicans in the audience this year may be a little distracted because many of them will be thinking about what's happening just four days after that. on january 24th, it's the first

real 2016 gop cattle call for candidates in iowa. >> how are you? >> reporter: so far former florida governor jeb bush has gone the furthest toward actually launching a campaign. on the democratic side, we may still be waiting at that point for hillary clinton to decide whether she'll confirm widely held expectations and throw her hat in the ring. the immigration issue will roar back to life as we approach february 27th when the department of homeland security's budget runs dry. and that number will pale ino the debt ceiling which was suspended through march 15th. after that it kicks back in. and come august we're likely back to iowa for the state's sometimes-consequential straw poll which could scramble the gop presidential field. and that is right before we get to september 30th when the government is set to run out of money yet again. congress will have to pass a new funding bill. if they don't, we could wind up careening toward 2016 amidst a government shutdown.

and just one more thing to look forward to in what we hope will otherwise be a very happy new year. in washington, doug luzader, fox news. and speaking of new laws to talk about in nevada. students who are considered habitually truant might have to wait to get a driver's license or have their current one taken away. gun owners in pennsylvania now able to more easily challenge local firearms ordinances in court. in nebraska veterans and spouses of disabled veterans will be given a hiring preference when applying for government jobs. and the most bizarre of the bunch, in new york, it will be illegal to take a selfie with a tiger, a lion or any other big cat because we know that you were, of course, dying to do that. >> okay. new year's day means college bowl games. see the biggest matchups today. number two ranked oregon is taking on number three florida state in the rose bowl. that's at 4:30. while number one alabama faces off with number four ohio state

in the allstate sugar bowl. that game at 8:30 primetime. >> should be some good games. about 20 minutes till the top of the hour. coming up, another baby on board, and what happens when a woman goes into labor on a plane. iphone users, you'll want to hear this. why apple could soon be putting money back in your pocket. >> that would be nice. and cleaning up the chaos. here live in times square. after millions packed in. but first, a look at some of your new year's resolutions for 2015. james writes, i told my daughters i'd quit smoking when i turn 50 in august. gotta keep that one! >> and brenda writes, to complete unfinished projects around the house. >> wanda writes give more hugs to my grandchildren and my husband. >> very nice.

happy new year. welcome back to "fox & friends first."

starting today, two of the largest hotel chains in the world making it harder to cancel reservations. so heads up, hilton and marriott now requiring guests to cancel by midnight a day before they arrive to avoid getting hit with a fee. many hotels currently allow people to cancel as late as 6:00 p.m. on the night of arrival. the hotels say that the change makes more rooms available for those needing last-minute accommodations. apple is getting sued for shrinking storage space, and it could mean you could get money back. a class action lawsuit filed this week accusing apple of not telling people its operating system could fill up a quarter of the storage space on some devices. a lawsuit as the software upgrade made 8 and 16-gig phones inoperable. they're encouraging users to buy new devices or extra storage space as a fix. forget making a resolution for yourself. facebook founder mark zuckerberg needs you to pick one for him. every year he commits himself to one personal challenge, and now he needs some ideas apparently.

some of his past resolutions include meet someone new each day, or only eat meat from animals that he has killed for himself. do you have an idea for zuckerberg? post it to his facebook wall. how about quit making so many changes to facebook? >> yeah, i like that. fix your privacy policy. time for your "5 @ 5." number five "captain america." in fourth, "x-men" pulling in $746 million. angelina jolie's "maleficent," third. surprise megahit "guardians of the galaxy" scoring $772 million at the international box office. missed that one. and by a huge margin, "transformers revenge of the fallen" claims the ground of highest grossing movie of the year with just over $1 billion. and i saw none of those. >> i wanted to see "guardians of the galaxy."

million people packed into new year's square. and it's time to clean up the mess. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you both. i don't know about you. but i was sleeping when the ball dropped and my noisy neighbors woke me up. but that party was no compare to the party here in times square. in this is an amazing party. it's hard to believe that more than a million people were crammed into times square. you see a couple of revellers out here. right now the cleanup has begun. it's been going on for hour nous. the new york city sanitation department has been hard at work for a few hours. they've got quite the daunting task ahead of them with tons and tons of trash. they're doing a great job. take a look here and you see a couple of the revellers here.
