choice ultimately. i don't think it's going to cause necessarily people to drink more than they would. >> i think people will be going to these parties to drink or at least that will be part of it. so i think providing free rides makes perfect sense. >> reporter: the rides could come in the form of a voucher or discount code. in san jose, katie marzullo, abc 7 news. what could be better than winning $277 million the day after christmas? that's tonight's jackpot for the california lottery's mega millions drawing. abc 7 news was in san francisco's lower knob hill neighborhood at round the clock market where people waited to buy what they hoped would be the winning ticket. the cash payout on this draw is $172.4 million. the winning white ball numbers are 10, 12, 20, 38, and 41. the gold mega ball is 25. well, just ahead, a plane is forced to make a u-turn back to los angeles tonight four hours into a flight. >> and passengers were livid,

but our other reliable computer model does the complete opposite. the american model for the same time frame keeps us completely dry. you're going to get new model runs in over the next couple of days. and as we debt closer to the holiday we'll fine-tune this forecast. the chance is there for some drops on new year's eve and new year's day. here's the accuweather seven-day forecast. we're planning the next seven days for you. mostly sunny mid-week here tomorrow. mild temperatures lasting through saturday. there's that chance of a potential storm sunday and into monday. right now it's a 1 on the storm impact scale. we'll get some new information and mike will have an update on that forecast tomorrow morning on abc 7 news at 4:30. >> if only the timing was a little better. >> i know. new year's. a lot of people out and about. >> thanks, drew. you've heard of goldilox ana three bears. >> but what about the deputy and three bears? that's next. tomorrow on "good morning america" wicked weather. that record-breaking snow storm's impact on holiday travel. and trump's trip. a look at this working vacation
