1 – It will be a much easier ride to work or school this morning compared to yesterday as we are not dealing with any snow. Temperatures are also much warmer than yesterday with a high expected to be around 35 today. This won’t last though as more snow and colder temperatures are expected back in the 716 this weekend and into next week. In fact, we could have the coldest air of the year impacting Western New York early next week with wind chills around -20 and below.
2- The Bills are back at Highmark Stadium this Sunday to host the Baltimore Ravens in the NFL divisional playoff round and there is one song that Bills Mafia hopes to hear in the 4th quarter (audio) That is the Killers with “Mr. Brightside” and it has become the official winning song for the Buffalo Bills. According to Josh Allen, it is not just the fans who can’t wait to hear the song. (audio) The song became a Bills' must after players were caught on camera singing along to it at Dawson Knox’s wedding. Kick-off for Sunday’s game is set for 6:30 pm.

You can win lots of great prizes including free car washes, tickets to the Ultimate 80s party, and tickets to Buffalo on Tap, the largest Craft beer festival in New York State.
4- How do you know that a city loves their football team? It is when the airport joins the trash talking with the other city’s team. That is exactly what the Buffalo-Niagara International Airport did when they posted a video of all the teams the Bills beat this season arriving at the airport with the score. I don’t think any other city loves their team as much as Buffalo loves the Bills. You can check out the video using our Station App.
